The High Price of a Penny

First and foremost, it's dangerous my stock and frame. If the job's too tough for you and I have a job for me, George Valentine. Right full details. Standard Oil Company of California on behalf of independent chevron gas stations and standard stations throughout the West invites you to let George do it.

The high price of a penny. Another adventure of George Valentine. Dear Mr. Valentine, How high is the price of a penny? Well, how high is up? I doubt if you can figure it. In fact, I doubt if you'll be much of any good in the present case.

And if you think I talk in riddles, you're right. However, Mr. Valentine, I waste my time by telling you the facts. I'm a prematurely retired lawyer and tax consultant. Neighbors of mine out here in the fish lake country, name is Momm, elderly men and wife.

They spent a penny one, a number of years ago, and a lollipop. Let me tell you, the price of that penny is going to be more than a million dollars. In plain words, those nice people are going to be taken. But just to really mix you up, I think you and I can stop the swindle with a diamond bracelet. Now here's what I'd like you to do.

Sell a phone to mom. Sell them your friend of mine and would like to come visit the country. I'll lay the groundwork. They know there isn't room for you to stay in my place anyway.

Maybe you can't do any good, but at least you can wear down your teeth for a change, biting on the penny. Seems fairly aimless. W-Fowl. Spoken like a lawyer. He has a lot of faith in you, doesn't he?
