An express wagon overtook

lift. This being - granted, he
rode into town on a box on the
wagon. As he was thanking the
driver for the ride, he asked
what was in the box.
"It's only a corpse," replied
the driver.
"Golly," exclaimed Tommy,
"I've been riding on a dead
one. Oh, well, 'tis all they're
good for." ,
