his head. He had not the slightest

but they never dared let their father
know about it. Just before his death
the coal merchant told them the names
of all debtors and the amounts due.
Even in his dying moments he spoke
with scorn of the need his sons found
for using pencil and paper to take
down what he told them. After their
father had passed away the sons
found his memory was even better
than their account book, for they had
neglected putting down certain sums
