The Tree That Spoke - Part 10 of 10
The end of the story shows how the villagers find out who was hiding behind the tree. They find out that the liars are the dishonest old man and his son; they stole the money and blamed the honest man. They lose the right to live in the village, but the kind Dharmabudhi asks the villagers to give them another chance, saying they became greedy.  The very end of the story is cut off, but we can assume the villagers agree with Dharmabudhi, the kind and honest villager.  (1:15)
