Searching for Hodja


One day, a man came to Akshehir and wanted to see the Hodja, who was famous as a great funny trickster. He saw a man leaning on a wall and asked him if he knew where the Hodja was.

This man said that he was busy at the moment leaning against the wall so that it would not fall down, but if the man would do his job he would go and look for the Hodja and call him.

The man said O.K. and leaned against the wall. He waited and waited but the other man did not return.

He told some people passing by, of the situation. When he described the man the people began to laugh and said to him: Didn't you believe that the Hodja was a joker? That was the Hodja to whom you spoke.
