You keep the body and send me the two bucks!
I remember this quote ever since I saw this movie in the late 1950's or early 1960's.
shareThis was base in the 1920's.
That 2 bucks probably bought a week's groceries at the time.
The wife who wrote that had no use for a corpse for which she probably had no money to pay for a funeral.
Actually I think it was two bits, which is 25 cents, not two bucks or dollars.
