30年前, 一个农场主在破产之际自杀身亡。 他的遗孀在巨大的悲痛中突然接到trump
的帮助, trump把农场的欠债全部还清, 这位遗孀得以保住农场继续经营。 30年后
Trump选总统的时候,这位女士写信说这三十年来她一直在感谢他, 为他祈祷。
事迹要从1986年说起了。当时农业情况很差很差。老多农场破产。
有一个老农Leonard三世。农场从他爷爷那里传到他。他知道自己的农场要被拍卖。自
杀了。床边放着自己的保险单。希望自己的生命保险能够帮着老婆撑下去逃离破产的命
运。
失算的是,这个保险单里的条款是自杀不算。
人死了,农场还要继续拍卖。这个悲惨故事在全国传遍了。TRUMP仗义出来。先给农场
捐了两万美元(1986年的两万美元)。后来和另外一个德州的石油商人一起捐了七万八
千美元。
TRUMP找了那个银行。说,你y要是一意孤行,咱就法院见。我会告你谋杀(根据你骚扰
他致死这一事实)。后来这个银行作出了让步。全国人民的捐款也跟进了。这个农场就
这么被TRUMP给救了。
今天,农场的第四代Leonard四世仍然住在这个TRUMP当时侠义拯救的农场里。
Trump provided $20,000 to stave off foreclosure of the Hill farm, but his
name was initially kept out of the picture.
“I said to the guy, ‘You listen to me. If you do foreclose, I’ll bring a
lawsuit for murder against you and your bank, on the grounds that you
harassed Mrs. Hill’s husband to his death.’ All of a sudden, the banker
sounded very nervous and said he’d get right back to me. Sometimes it pays
to be a little wild,” Trump wrote.
Money poured in, but Trump and a Texas oilman — a real one, this time —
provided the last $78,000. A “mortgage-burning” ceremony was scheduled for
two days before Christmas. The Hill family was again flown to New York, at
Trump’s expense.
Argenbright feels likewise. “He couldn’t have been nicer. He took care of
them and stayed in touch with them after that,” Argenbright said. “He had
no ulterior motive.”(完全是侠义)
Her brother, by the way, is Leonard Dozier Hill IV. He still lives on the
farm that Donald Trump saved.
