THE PUZZLE WALL.





(Patchwork Puzzles)
There was a small lake, around which four poor men built their cottages.
Four rich men afterwards built their mansions, as shown in the

instructed a builder to put up the shortest possible wall that would
exclude the cottagers, but give themselves free access to the lake. How
was the wall to be built?
