There are many anecdotes about George Washington, the first president of the United States. Among them, there is the following:
Once a neighbor stole one of Washington’s horses. Washington went with a police officer to the neighbor’s farm to get the horse, but the neighbor refused to give the horse up; he claimed that it was his horse.
Washington placed both of his hands over the eyes of the horse and said to the neighbor, "If this is your horse, then you must tell us in which eye he is blind."
"In the right eye!" the neighbor said.
Washington took his hand from the right eye of the horse and showed the police officer that the horse was not blind in the right eye.
"Oh, I have made a mistake," said the neighbor. "He is blind in the left eye." Washington then showed that the horse was not blind in the left eye either.
"I have made another mistake," said the neighbor.
"Yes," said the police officer, "and you have also proven that the horse does not belong to you. You must return it to Mr Washington."
