   fair to sell a cow. Before going he told his son to get the highest penny at the fair for the cow. The son assured him that he would, but he was a very silly fellow and did not understand what his father meant.
   He went to the fair and after some time a buyer came to him and asked him what he wanted for the cow. "The highest penny at the fair", replied the fellow. "Will you sell her for five pounds?" asked the buyer. "No", he replied. A few buyers came along and offered him a good price but he would not sell the cow and insisted that he wanted the highest penny.
