1.
Mrs Black was old and rich. She lived in a splendid house and owned a lot of valuable things. Then she died, and there was a big funeral. Notices were sent out to relatives and friends, and they came from far and near to attend the funeral.
]]>2.
The service took place in Mrs Black's old church, and then her body was taken back to be buried in a special place in her garden. The hearse carrying her body moved along slowly, followed by the relatives and friends, the women and children in cars, and the men on foot.
]]>3.
One of Mrs Black's cousins saw a poorly dressed man following the hearse and crying bitterly.
The cousin said to him kindly, 'Were you a relative of the dead woman too?'
'No,' the man answered.
'Then why are you crying?' the dead woman's relative asked.
'That's exactly why I'm crying,' the poorly dressed man answered.
