[精选英语幽默赏析]I Didn't Say That
A man was charged with shooting a number of pigeons, the property of a farmer. Counsel for the defense tried to frighten the farmer.
"Now," he remarked,"are you prepared to swear that this man shot your pigeons?"
"I didn't say he shot them," was the reply. "I said I suspected him of doing it."
"Ah! Now we're coming to it. What made you suspected the man?"
"Well, first, I caught him on my land with a gun. Secondly, I heard a gun go off and saw some pigeons fall. Thirdly, I found four of my pigeons in his pocket,and I don't think the birds flew there and committed suicide."
Notes
