Three days ago, the boss of a gold shop received a letter. As he was very busy, the letter was on his desk
till dinner time. When he opened it, a $1000 note fell out onto the desk. With the note was a short letter:

Dear sir,
     I got married forty years ago. Unfortunately, at that time there was a lot of unemployment and I got no
job. I was out of work for about six months before I got another one. Of course I was very short of
money.
     I came to your shop to buy a wedding ring one day. The assistant brought some rings for me to have a
look, later she was called away for a moment, and then I put one of the rings into my pocket. When she
came back, I said I did not know the size of my girlfriend's finger. So I left the shop with the ring but I did
n't pay for it. My wife died a month ago, and the fact that I never paid for her ring has been on my
conscience (让我良心不安) all these years. I always feel guilty about that. At that time the ring cost $100,
and I think that is about ten times at today's price.
     Now, I am sending you that amount.
                                                                                                                                      Yours truly,
                                                                                                                                      A customer
