One good turn deserves another

Fred was a farm-worker who found a young eagle caught in a trap. He couldn't bear to see such a beautiful bird in pain, so he released it.

A few days later, he was sitting in the shade of an old wall, having breading and cheese for his lunch. Suddenly, with a flapping of wings, the eagle swooped and stole the cap from his head. It flew away just above the ground with Fred rushing after it, shouting , until it dropped his cap. Fred put it back on his head and trudged back to finish his lunch. But what do you think?

Exactly where he had been sitting the old wall had collapsed! Each of them had saved other.
