"Don't Despair"

[Adela]

Hello all, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Adela

Sitting by the window in her convent, Sister Anne opened a letter from

home and found a $10 bill inside.

As she read the letter, she caught sight of a shabbily dressed

stranger leaning against a lamppost below.

Quickly she wrote, "Don't despair, Sister Anne" on a piece of paper,

wrapped the $10 in it, and dropped it out the window.

The stranger picked it up and, with a puzzled expression and a tip of

his hat, went off down the street.

The next day Sister Anne was told that a man was at the door,

insisting on seeing her. She went down and found the stranger waiting. Without a

word, he handed her a roll of bills. "What's this?" she asked.

"That's the 60 bucks you have coming. Don't Despair paid five to one."
