or had a family. So, with him working so many years...Don't you think he's bound to
have money? And then, what's that man spend his money on? The only thing he buys
is his bit of food every Saturday. Once in a while, a beer, but that's all."
"Yeah, he's gotta have a pile of money, for sure. But, you think he's going to bury it
around here?"
"Who said he's burying anything? Look, he always goes for his food on Saturday.
Let's check close where he goes this week, and on Saturday, when he's on his errand,
we'll see what he's hiding. Whadda you say?"
