only two relatives, his sons Joseph and Oliver.
They were identical twins. They were so alike
that nobody could tell them apart. Not even their
father.

Joseph and Oliver left home when they were 20
years old, and they had never been back. When the
two brothers heard about their fathers death,
they went to his house right away. Their fathers
lawyer, Miss Madoc met them.
6
She said, Come into the library, I must read you
your fathers will.They all went into the
library and sat down. Miss Madoc took a piece of
paper from the desk.
7
She said, Your father made a very short will. It
is in three parts. Part one says I leave all my
money to my son Oliver. The lawyer turned to the
twin brothers and asked, So which one of you is
Oliver?

Both of the sons said, I am. Im Oliver!.Miss
Madoc was very angry, One of you must be a
liar.

If there is any argument about which son is real
Oliver,
11
Then I leave all my money to Joseph!. Once again
the lawyer turned to the twins and asked, Which
one is Joseph? I am! cried the two sons with
one voice.
12
The lawyer was very angry. She cried, But a
minute ago you both were Oliver!They argued for
about an hour. Miss Madoc called them liars. Then
she said I am going to read you the third part
of this will.
13
It says If both my sons turn out to be liars
then I leave all my money to Miss Madoc, my

without a penny. The clever will had shown them

tricked them, because Mr.Conran never made a will.
