Two old brothers, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Roderick and Oliver, make a bet. Oliver bets Roderick that a man with a million pound note can survive in London for a month. Roderick disagrees. They see an American, Henry Adams, lost and hungry in London with no money, wandering outside their house. They invite him in. He tells them that after getting lost at sea in his sailing boat, he was picked up by a ship and had to work his way to England without being paid. They give him a letter, telling him there is money inside. He says he is looking for work, not charity. They tell him that they know he is hard-working and that they chose him because of his honesty. They show him out, making him promise not to open the letter until 2 o’clock. (By Ray Cama)
