Battery Failure.
The owner of a bottle green jaguar had chest pain,
after dinning on Irish stew, bravely drove himself
to hospital, parked, locked his car but forgot to
switch of its light; at the reception hall he collapsed
and the experts in medical emergency went into
action. Later the hospital’s sentinel noticed this, but
could do nothing only watch as the light got dimmer
and finally at five the battery was so weak that
the lights ceased; at the same time as its owner died.
this greatly disturbed the sentinel who thought there
must be a sort of connection even though he lacked
words to express his concern. But he learned a lesson
that morning now he keeps his battery on his own car
topped up and never forget to switch off the lights
