While he was out Jack came in . ''You weren't long burying him,'' said the wife. ''I'm cold,'' said Jack and he turned and twisted and got the sheet around him and out with him.In a few minutes the gentleman came in. You weren't long out this time said the wife ''What,'' I wasn't in at all it must have been Jack. He looked on the bed and the sheet was gone.
He was ashamed to stay in the place. He put it up for sale and Jack bought it and lived happily ever after.
