Dear Son I know you are probably wondering what this letters concerning but I anted you to know how I came to be the man you look upon as your father. You should know that in many cases money is brought upon a man through inheritance, luck, or hard work. In my case however money was brought onto me because of the hard-worker I once was. It was not to long ago that I was just an ordinary man living in San Francisco as a mining brokers clerk. In the eyes of others I was a respectable young man, clean-cut, and very intelligent, all the qualities to go fortune.

The notes were to be used for some public transaction with a foreign country. At the time on had been used while the other note still remained in the vaults of the bank.

They argued what the fate of an honest and intelligent stranger who appeared aimless with no money or friends but that million dollar bank-note. Brother A said he would starve to death for he wouldn’t be able to offer it at the bank or anywhere else for he would be arrested for having possession of it. Brother B however disagreed and made a bet with his brother saying that the man will survive for thirty days without being imprisoned, on the that million dollar bank note, and so there bet began. So not knowing anything about the bet and the two brothers I sat in the room impatiently waiting for answers as to why they called me in.
