    "No" said the rich man. "Well it is looking for the money she is", the servant said. He put two hundred pounds in the coffin as he went to the gave & put it in. The servant went that night & got the money & he gave a hundred of it to the poor man. He asked him could he go now, that he had a good deal of money earned for him. The poor man gave him leave & he went off well satisfied. The poor man was very happy after that & he never wanted to work in the mill again.
