The Greatest Treasure in the World

The Greatest Treasure in the World

Rufus Wainwright Bobbins, JR III is dead. Yes, that Rufus Wainwright Bobbins, Jr. III. The richest man in Saltine, California's worst town. The eccentric millionaire with the castle, the local kook who insisted "alpacas are the future," the guy who used his money to fund strange acts of public art that were never properly permitted. No, no, not the musician. Well technically, he did play the digital sousaphone, but that’s beside the point. Anyway, Rufus Wainwright Bobbins, Jr. III is dead. And he’s invited his friends, family and loved ones to his manse for a reading of his last will and testament. But this will… is a will like no other.
