Mary missed her father and told him about it on the telephone. Mr. Black came to the city a week ago. The old man likes walking after a meal and he often stops to talk with the people in the town. And yesterday, after he had supper, he went out for a walk again. He found there were a lot of people in front of a house. He stopped to find out what was happening there. He saw a man standing there with a crying woman.
“What's the matter, madam? ”Mr. Black asked an old woman beside him.
“It's a drunken（喝醉的）man, ”she said.“He likes nothing but drinking. Now he says he'll give his wife to anybody who can buy a bottle of whisky（威士忌）for him.”
Mr. Black is ready to help others, but he hates a man like him. So he shook his head and went away at once.
This morning the old man walked past the same house again and saw the man sitting in front of his house, crying sadly.
“Do you feel sorry that you sold your wife at a low price? ”asked the old man.
“No, ”answered the man.“I'm in great need of whisky now. But I don't know where my wife is.”
