    Raiding the Bank
    There are a number of people appointed to the guards. And another couple raiding the bank, they go down someplace in the field an begin pulling grass for money. Then there is a messenger to tell the guards that the others are raiding the bank. When the guards hear that they are raiding the bank they go out and run after the raiders and if the guards catch the raiders they put them in jail and tell them how long they have to be in it.
