A Story 14/11/'38
There was once a man at a fair and he had a lot of money. He knew he would be robbed when he would be coming home. There was a clown there so he gave him the money and when the clown got the money he ran away and started counting it. Then a man walked out from the ditch with a gun and took the money off him and the clown started crying and there is not a mark to tell them at home that I put up a fight to get the money off him.
So the man said I will put three bullet holes in your jacket. Put another in my hat. I have not another. Its my chance now so he took the money off the man again.
