John was born in a small town in England. His father has a farm and can supply him enough money to finish university where he's studying law. The young man studies hard and hopes to be a famous lawyer.
Last Friday their term was over. John said to his father on the telephone that he was going to travel in a small country during his summer holiday.

He brought out a piece of paper and wrote on it, “A pig has stolen my wallet!”Then he put the note into his empty wallet. After that he put the wallet into a pocket and set off. He did all carefully and hoped to find out who would steal it.
