[00:18.39]The whole village soon learnt that a large sum of money had been lost. [00:25.33]Sam Benton, the local butcher, [00:28.23]had lost his wallet while taking his savings to the post office. [00:33.90]Sam was sure that the wallet must have been found by one of the villagers, [00:39.78]but it was not returned to him. [00:43.54]Three months passed, and then one morning, [00:47.16]Sam found his wallet outside his front door. [00:52.18]It had been wrapped up in newspaper and [00:55.43]it contained half the money he had lost, [00:59.33]together with a note which said: [01:02.52]'A thief, yes, but only 50 per cent a thief!' [01:09.90]Two months later, [01:11.62]some more money was sent to Sam with another note: [01:17.25]'Only 25 per cent a thief now!' [01:22.02]In time, all Sam's money was paid back in this way. [01:27.38]The last note said: 'I am 100 per cent honest now!'
