mattresses ahd burned them in the empty lot next to the house and substituted the new mattresses for the old all of which the children watched with delight including when the father came home and was told of what had been done he became frantic and amid ravings confessed to the neighbors that he had hidden the savings of a lifetime eleven thousand dollars in those oldi mattresses and yet he had
