The Honest Lawyer
The city miser was on his death bed and his last request was to be alone with his lawyer, doctor, and priest.
“I know I am going to die” he said ”and I would like to take my money with me, so I am going to give each of you $150,000 and I want you to each make sure the money gets in the coffin.”
It was a few days after the funeral when the priest overflowing with guilt finally confided to the other two that he only put $100,000 back.
“I’m glad you brought it up” said the doctor, “because I have also been feeling guilty, I only put $80,000 back.”
“You people should be ashamed of yourselves” stormed the lawyer “stealing money like that, am I the only honest person here? Here, look at this,” he said pulling out his check book, “look, I wrote out a check for the full $150,000!”
