The police had still not managed to catch the thief three weeks later ， so Mr. Grey decided that he would try to do something about it .He therefore bought a camera ， fixed it up in his shop so that it would photograph anyone who broke in at night ， and put some very cheap jewellery in front of it for the thief .

A few nights later the thief did come again ， but he did not touch any of the cheap jewellery that Mr. Grey had put out for him . He took the camera . It was worth $1500
