A Monkeys Paw
Seargent Major Morris has come to visit Mr. White and his family after 21-years. He had brought along a Monkey 's Paw. He told the family all about its great powers and how it can grant you 3 wishes. Morris had already had its three wishes so he didn 't want the paw anymore. Morris so threw the paw upon the fire. Mr. White with a slight cry stooped down and snatched it off. Morris had warned them about the talisman and its consequences and he did not want to get blamed on if anything happened. Mr. White was just too fascinated about it that he wanted to give it a try and that is how he became the new owner of the Monkey 's Paw.
The family believed in the paw so they decided to wish for something. Their first wish was for two hundred pounds. It was just an easy wish for them to find out if the paw actually worked. The paw turned in his hand but the money wasn 't anywhere to be seen. The family was disappointed but at least no harm had been done they thought. The next day, Herbert went of for work at Maw and Meggins. Mrs. White had noticed a mysterious man outside the house, when he finally decided to enter; Mrs. White greeted the man with his silk hat into the house. He had come from Maw and Meggins to tell them sad news about their son. Herbert had gotten into an accident where he got hurt badly to death. Do to the fact that Herbert was a great worker; the man said they will get a sum of two hundred pounds.
After ten days Mrs. White got an idea. She wanted to have another wish granted. Mrs. White really loved her son, so she would want him back no matter what. The old man wasn 't to sure about that thought because he knew he would have to deal with new consequences. Mr. White got forced by his wife so he used his second wish for Herbert to come back alive again.
Mr. White was scared because he did not want his wife to see Herbert in this bad stage,
