New Apartment

Bill and Sarah were Londoners and were blessed with seven healthy
children. After many months of discussion, they finally decided to
move to New York. It should have been a simple enough move, but when
they arrived, they had great difficulty finding a suitable apartment
to live in.

Although many were big enough, the landlords always seemed to object
to such a large family living there. If only Bill wasn't so honest
about the size of his family!

After several days of unsuccessful searching, Bill had an idea. He
told Sarah to take the four younger children to visit the local
cemetery while he went with the older three children to find an
apartment. After looking for most of the morning, Bill found a place
that was ideal.

The landlord asked him, "How many children do you have?"

Bill answered with a deep sigh, "Seven .. but four are with their
dear mother in the cemetery."

He got the apartment!
