[QUOTE="more, post: 61310"] A DYING WISH... A dying man gathered his lawyer, doctor and clergyman at his bedside and handed each of them an envelope containing $25,000 in cash. He made them each promise that after his death and during his repose, they would place the 3 envelopes in his coffin. He told them that he wanted to have enough money to enjoy the next life. A week later the man died. At the wake,the lawyer, doctor & clergyman each concealed an envelope in the coffin and bid their old client and friend farewell. By chance, these three met several months later. Soon, the clergyman, feeling guilty, blurted out a confession saying that there was only $10,000 in the envelope he placed in the coffin. He felt rather than waste the money, he would send it to a mission in Africa. He asked for their forgiveness. The doctor, moved by the clergyman's sincerity, confessed that he too had kept some of the money for a worthy medical charity. The envelope had only $8000 in it. He too could not bring himself to waste the money when it could be used to benefit others. By this time the lawyer was seething with self-righteous outrage. He expressed his deep disappointment in the felonious behavior of two of his oldest and most trusted friends. "I am the only one who kept his promise to our dying friend. I want you both to know that the envelope I placed in the coffin contained the full amount. Indeed, my envelope contained my personal check for the entire $25,000!" [/QUOTE]
