So, honesty in this story was rewarded in a practical way.
Once, there was a young girl named Lily. She found a wallet with a large sum of money in it.

Once upon a time, there was a young boy named Tom. He found a wallet on the street filled with money. Tom could have easily kept it, but he remembered that honesty is the best policy.
