Story: The elephant and the tailor

Published by

There lived an elephant in a village. Anytime he was going to the river to take a bath he passed by a tailor’s shop. The tailor always gave him something to eat. The two became friends.

As usual one day he put his trunk inside the shop. The tailor was not in a good mood as he had a quarrel with a customer.

The tailor, instead of giving him something to eat, pushed a needle into its trunk. The elephant silently went away.

The elephant reached the river and took his bath. After that, he fetched muddy water in its trunk. On its way back, he stopped at the tailor’s shop and paired all the muddy water on the clothes in the shop. All the clothes were destroyed. The tailor had to bear heavy losses.
