''Gatsby was walking back from a visit down in Branton Hill's manufacturing district on a Saturday night. A busy day's traffic had had its noisy run; and with not many folks in sight, His Honor got along without having to stop to grasp a hand, or talk; for a mayor out of City Hall is a shining mark for any politician. And so, coming to Broadway, a booming bass drum and sounds of singing, told of a small Salvation Army unit carrying on amidst Broadway's night shopping crowds. Gatsby, walking towards that group, saw a young girl, back toward him, just finishing a long, soulful oration ... ''
The above passage is taken from the book ''Gatsby'' written by Ernest Vincent Wright in the late 1930's
Nothing is wrong with the paragraph above, it's just unusual...do you know why?
A horse is tied to a 15 ft. rope and there is a bail of hay 25 ft. away from him. Yet the horse is able to eat from the bail of hay. How is this possible
Riddles for you!?ariel
The paragraph doesn't contain a letter E....
The horse may be tied to the rope, but it's not tied to anything else.

The paragraph doesn't contain the letter E.
The rope isn't tied to anything else other than the horse.
maybe the other end of the rope is not tied to anything?
the 15 foot rope isnt tied to anything else, lol
1. There is no 'e' anywhere in the paragraph
2. The rope tied to the horse is not tethered to anything, so the horse can just walk where it wants??
Good riddles - took me a while to get the first one :)
the 15ft rope is not tied to anything just him?
the horse is all the way to the right of the 15 ft rope
he walks back to the left 25 ft to the other side
and still has a 5 ft leway
