The very wealthy English Baron Fitzgerald had only one child， a son， who understandably was the apple of his eye. His wife died when the child was in his early teens. So Fitzgerald did a lot of things for his son. Unfortunately the son died in his late teens.

Meanwhile， Fitzgerald’s wealth greatly increased. He spent a lot on art works of the great artists. Later Fitzgerald himself became seriously ill. Before his death， he had carefully prepared his will（遺囑）as to how his wealth would be settled—to sell all his collection at an auction（拍賣(mài)）.

Many of them were museum directors and private collectors anxious to bid（出價(jià)）. Before the auction， the art works were shown， among which was a painting of Fitzgerald’s son by an unknown artist. Because of its poor quality， it received little attention.

When it was time for the auction， the auctioneer asked the crowd to pay attention. First the lawyer read from Fitzgerald’s will that the first art work to be auctioned was the painting of his son.

The poor—quality painting didn’t receive any bidders， except one old man who had served the son and loved him， and who offered the only bid.

As soon as the man bought the painting for less than one English pound， the auctioneer stopped the bidding and asked the lawyer to read again from the will.
