Some people believe that a Robin Hood is at work£¬others that a wealthy person simply wants to distribute his or her fortune before dying. But the donator who started sending envelopes with cash to deserving causes£¬accompanied by an article from the local paper, has made a northern German city believe in fairytales (ͯ»°).

The first envelope was sent to a victim support group. It contained €10£¬000 with a cutting from the Braunschiveiger Zeitung about how the group supported a woman who was robbed of her handbag; similar plain white anonymous (ÄäÃû) envelopes, each containing €10, 000, then arrived at a kindergarten and a church.

The envelopes keep coming, and; so far at least €190, 000 has been distributed. Last month, one of them was sent to the newspaper ¡®s own office. It came after a story it published about Tom, a 14-year-old boy who was severely disabled in a swimming accident. The receptionist at the Braunschiveiger Zeitung opened an anonymous white envelope to find 20 notes of € 500 inside with a copy of the article. The name of the family was underlined.

¡°I was driving when I heard the news,¡± Claudia Neumann, the boy¡¯s mother, told Der Spiegel magazine. ¡°I had to park on the side of the road; I was speechless.¡±

The money will be used to make the entrance to their house wheelchair-accessible and for a course of treatment that their insurance company refused to pay for.

¡°For someone to act so selflessly, for this to happen in such a society in which everyone thinks of himself, was astonishing,¡± Mrs. Neumann said. Her family wonder whether the donator is a Robin Hood character, taking from banks to give to the needy.

Henning Noske£¬the editor of the Braunschiveiger Zeitung, said: "Maybe it is an old person who is about to die. We just do not know. " However, he has told his reporters not to look for the city¡¯s hero, for fear that discovery may stop the donations.(www.yywords.com)
