One day a poor man went to see Morden at the town's hank, which Morden Owned.

   "I can't t make the payments on my house," the man said. "They're too high, and my wages at your factory are too low. Besides, my wife is ill. She n  3  medicine."

   "If you don't pay now, I'll take your house away," said Morden.                  

   "1 can't pay," said the poor man, "b  4  I don't have any money."              

   "Then you will lose your house," said Morden.                       

   The man fell to the floor.  "Please, sir, "he said.  "Don't take away my house. If you don't, 1'll teach your h  5  to talk."                                    ~

   Morden had a beautiful white horse, and he was very proud o  6   it. He smiled. "All right," he said. "You don't have to pay me now. You can have six months. If you teach my horse to talk, I'll give you your house, and money for your wife. But, if you don't, you o  7   to give me your house."

   The poor man's friend said, "You're a fool. You can't teach a horse to talk. It's i  8  ."

   "I'm not s  9   a fool," said the man.  "In six months, four things might happen. Morden might die. 1 might die. The horse might die...or the horse might t  10  . "
