What had Milo Pierce been like before last Monday?

Until last Monday, Milo Pierce was a very poor man. He was 51 and had no fixed address. He had been using a park bench as his home and wandered in the streets during the daytime. It was cold and windy, and he had to keep himself warm by putting newspapers between the layers of his clothes. What made it worse was that there had been a lot of shwers recently. But ail that changed when a neatly dressed lawyer finally found him on the park bench. The lawyer had some important news for him. He told him that he had been instructed to hand over to him a very large sum of money. Milo Pierce was so astonished that he nearly fell off the bench. It was too good to be true. It turned out that he had once met an American tourist whose name was Roy Turner. He was regarded as a very successful businessman in making computer components. He had made a fortune in the industry. However he had just entered a religious group in which all worldly goods were forbidden. So he decided to give them all away to the lucky tramp, Milo.
