Okay. So with the story from 100 years ago I heard from uh I heard from who said over from his father was a b and he said over from his father that like this was the story this was the story by by byron said that there was once a yid in kesh who was a and the had a napoleon. You know what a napoleon? Napoleon was a coin that you could feed your family for mamir mam year. It was and he had one. He got as a a present for doing a a ma somebody gave him in a pil and you know he had it and every single day he would come home and he would look at it and then he would go out and then then he would come back and then he would look at it and then he would go out that was you know it's a for me it was one Napoleon one day this comes home and this was in very fair times in it was in 1914 it was at the time of the first world war which anyways being under the Ottoman Empire was the sadikim and the matz was no sitad thesuka that they put the hidden under the fact that there was no guilt, no money, no parasa, no food, no nothing. One day the child of the may took the coin and went to uh to to buy to buy a candy, right? To buy a candy. He took the Napoleon. He saw his father looking at this coin every day. So look looks interesting. So he took this coin and he went to the makola. Then he bought with it a candy. His father comes home. He went over to look where's the coin. Coin's not there. Says where's the coin? Where's the coin? He goes over to his wife, "Where's the coin?" "Don't know." They were over the kid. He said, "Did you take the coin?" He said, "Yeah, brother." Where'd you go? Went to the store to buy uh to buy a little candy or something. So, he ran to the store. His wife was running to both of them together, right? You stole the coin. You stole my coin. You stole my coin. Why? I stole your coin. I took your coin. Is a coin. It says, "What do you mean? My son came in and he gave you a Napoleon. and Napoleon your son gave what's called a I think it was called in those days right like a little like like a little agura it's like a given and god for it the little candy ganv Russia you stole the money he gave you a napoleon they didn't give Napoleon and the rash got loud then the streets of were small and especially when rash got loud and everybody started to come around the store and and she's screaming and he's screaming the mo is screaming where and so the the ballet he's sitting there saying I didn't take any of your money the kid brought in and that's And he says it's an and the was respected respected person in the community. Nobody's lying. He said it's he stole the Napoleon. He said Russia it became such a rash that somebody was there. He said look let's go to go to go to whatever says that's what you do. So they went to and heard the stom and he said listen you know if there was ever a case that that you have to give this is the case. You know he's he's saying like you're saying he stole the Napoleon. So then you can't be so he has to take it. So the said he'll take the he didn't uh he didn't take anything. He'll take the So the the was so upset he said he knows he took it right. So forget it. So I need also should have a developed you know he's gonna lie and the whole world shakes from say he was on the told him he did the right thing and that was it that was it no slowly this you can imagine his start to go down because the whole streets of everybody was talking about the GF Napoleon and such a such a terrible thing and such a Russia and everything. So By became the man where he the mat was so bad his pronounce was so bad that he thought he had to leave town. [snorts] A few months later the gets a letter. The letter said like this. The letter was from and he inside of it was a Napoleon. Inside the was a paper with Napoleon inside the letter and he writes that he was walking down the street one day and he sees this child walking holding a gold coin. Walking down the street holding a gold coin. He said his matzah was so bad that they were starving. Mom is starving to death in the house. He didn't know what to do. He was walking around the streets just trying to figure out what to do. So he said that he knows that there's a there's a there's a rashi in Babakama. There's a shakama. Are you allowed to steal to save your life? So he said he was make that child. So he took the coin from the kid and he gave him a gave him a little like an agura little coin and he took the coin and he said it'll pay back. It'll pay back and he said I hope it didn't cause you any aes but here's the the coin right he wrote. you owe me [laughter] owe me you know there wasn't be a problem right so he said here's the Napoleon and you know I hope I didn't cause you any so he said when he told the story to his son who said it to me he said like this he said no he said who's in gehenn who's in gam he said no the the what do you want from the mo the he had a had a took the coin his son told him he took the coin and the coin wasn't there. So tak what do you want from the what do you want from the at the V's is not in G and he he he he underwent such bizness in such bushes like he's for sure he's in a high place in Ganed and he lost his G from Megan his old parnosa he's for he says the dre what do you want from him he's in ganim so what do you want from him he's starving and they got guilt and dust what do you want from him said he they're all not in they're all in ganed he said you know in ganim all the people that were around the stores hawking and screaming hashem hates hates hackers.
