A SLICE OF JAMAICAN-NORTH AMERICAN REALITY

An old couple in Jamaica was puzzled when the coffin of their dead relative arrived from Foreign. The corpse was so tightly squeezed inside the coffin that her face was practically touching the glass cover. When they opened the coffin, they found a letter pinned to her chest, which read:

Dear Mama and Papa:
