v1.c7.51

**Agantuka.**—A banker of **Sāvatthi**. He was rich, but he neither enjoyed his wealth himself nor gave it to others; he ate rice-dust with sour gruel, wore coarse clothes and went about in an old chariot with a parasol of leaves over his head. After death he was born in **Roruva-niraya**. He died heirless and it took seven days and seven nights for the king's men to remove his wealth to the royal treasury.
