“1872, Mór Jókai, Az arany ember (Timar’s Two Worlds), part 1, chapter 10, translated by Mrs. Hegan Kennard”
"Here in this casket is money—about a thousand ducats; the rest of my property is in the sacks packed as grain. I leave on my table a note which you must keep. I declare therein that I have contracted dysentery by immoderate enjoyment of melons, and am dying of it; further, that my whole possessions were only these thousand ducats. This will serve you as a security that no one may accuse you of having caused my death or embezzled my money.
