An old man was going home late one night with his horse and cartafter a day’s hard work.  When he was not far away from his house, the light on the cart went out. He tried but could not repair it. He was near his home, and so he went along the road without a light. When a policeman saw this, he stopped the old man.
“Where is your light?” asked the policeman. “No man may take a cart along the road at night without a light. You know that. You have broken the law.” “I had a light, but it has just gone out,” said the old man.
“I don’t believe that story. What’s your name and where do you live?” asked the policeman. “Please don’t write down my name,” said the old man. “My home is just there. You can see it from here. I had a light nearly the whole way.”
“You came all the way without a light. What’s your name?”
The old man quickly took the policeman’s hand and put it down on the top of the light. The light was still hot and burnt the policeman’s hand. The policeman jumped and he was very angry. “Now, what do you think?” said the old man. “Did I come all the way without a light?”
