From the Housetops

CHAPTER XI
20/53

"He has an envelope up there with fifty thousand dollars in it.

He had me count them a week ago, right before his eyes, and hide the envelope in a drawer.

Or what's to prevent my making off with the money after he's gone?
Nobody would ever know.

But he knows me too well.
