"What Really Happened to Harry." Based on the Alfred Hitchcock Classic.

He was found in beautiful Vermont in Fall. On a western hill they say. The only problem that could be found was his death, in a providential, auspicious way, His feet were pointed East, slightly on a rise. So every morning in his sleep, Harry would see the sunrise.

Several thought they new the hows, the whys, the way and when. That Harry had met his faithful demise on such a beautiful day back then. The Captain though he'd shot him. The spinster thought, with her shoe. His wife he had deserted, thought it was the milk bottle that she threw.

Finally a fine artist stepped in to give them all a hand. It was at that point the fun really did begin So each turned to one another to lend a helping hand. Two by two, in turns they covered him with clay. Only to have to dig him up; suspicion to direct another way. Three times in and three times out. Finally to the tub, to clean Harry all scrubbed up and dressed like a dandy bub.

For they had finally given in and let the Doc perform a check. No one had killed Harry at all. It was all a big mistake. While walking on the hillside, his deserted wife to see. Harry had a heart attack and died right under a tree.

So everything worked out well at the very end. The Captain got the spinster. The artist the beleaguered wife. The starving artist became a millionaire and took her the wife, for life.
And for what finally happened to Harry, he was finally laid to rest. With his feel pointing East and his head facing West.
