Ramsingh agrees to deliver the donkey the next day. Next day, Ramsingh drives up and said,

"Sorry Jonesy but I have some bad news. The donkey dead."

"Well gie me back meh money," said Jonesy.

"Worse news boy, I went an spend it already."
"OK, then. Just unload de donkey."

"Wha yuh go do wid him?" asked Ramsingh.

"You don worry, I go raffle him."

“You cyan raffle a dead donkey. You mad or what!"
"Who say so... you makin joke! Watch me! I ent telling nobody he dead," said Jonesy.
