A man lived alone in the country. He wanted to dig his potato garden but it was very hard work as the ground was very hard.
His only son Saul, who used to help him, was in prison for Insider Trading and Stock Fraud.
The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament.
Dear Solly,
I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant
my potato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a
garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be over. I know you
would dig the plot for me.
Love, Papa
A few days later the old man received a letter from his son.
Dear Papa,
For heavens sake Dad, don't dig up that garden, that's where I buried
the the money &stocks!
Love, Solly.
At 4 am the next morning, a team of FBI agents and local police arrived at the old man's house and dug up the entire area without finding any
money or stocks. They apologized to the old man and left. That same day the old man received another letter from his son.
Dear Papa,
Go ahead and plant the potatoes now. That was the best I could do under
the circumstances.
Love,
Your son, Solly.
