A Spanish man doing business in Poland one day came across a pretty church with a coffin inside laid out for viewing. No one else was there.A little surprised, the businessman nevertheless said a prayer, and signed the book of condolences, leaving a note passing on good wishes on to the dead man's loved ones, and a business card. A month later he got a call from the dead man's lawyer.It appears that the dead man had suspected that he could not trust his own family or business associates. He decided that only in death would he  discover who, if anyone, cared for him, rather than just his money .The deceased man's will stated that his multimillion dollar fortune was to be split evenly amongst all who attended his wake. The Spanish businessman was the only attendant, and inherited a massive fortune. 

Many years ago a man with two sons ran a large farm in the vicinity and, on his death, left his entire estate to his eldest son, cutting of the younger one without a penny. The younger son went away, jealous and confused at his father's actions. Convinced that he had been cheated of his birthright, he set out to take revenge on his elder brother. One night he returned to his childhood home, crept onto the farm and set fire to the buildings. The entire property was burned to the ground. The ruins of this once  prosperous farm may still be seen near Backways – a few stones from the from the farmhouse and outbuildings were all that remained after the fearsome blaze. In the morning, the arsonist discovered that his brother had died on the day before he had set the fire, and left the entire estate to him.

When two motorists were found dead in their unmarked cars a short distance apart on a German road, police was mistified. After a lengthy forensic examination, the story was eventually revealed. The two motorists were driving in heavy fog. Each was guiding his car carefully at a  snail's pace near the middle of the road. At the moment of impact their heads were both out of the driver's side windows when they cracked together, leaving the unmarked cars to roll gently to a halt 200 yards apart.        I don't own any of this stories.

Once there was a little girl, Amy, whose grandfather had just died. She had loved him very much I missed him terribly. He was buried in a cemetery just a few hundred yards from her house, and she could see his grave for her bedroom window. One night, her parents were going out and the baby sitter hadn't arrived. She was a very reliable sitter, so, trusting she would soon arrive, they kissed Amy goodbye and left. Hours passed and the babysitter had still not arrived. Amy began to worry.
