Lencho received an envelope with money from God, but was only 70 pesos instead of the full 100 pesos he was expecting. He believed the post office employees had stolen the remaining 30 pesos. First, Lencho sat at a public writing table and wrote a letter. Then he went to the window to buy a stamp, licked it, and affixed it to the envelope. Finally, he dropped the letter into the mailbox, accusing the post office of theft in the letter. Lencho is described as a poor farmer with unshakable faith in God, though he may have relied on God too fully without understanding other factors.
