contents The common cause completeness (CCC) is a philosophical principle that asserts that if we consider two positively correlated events then it evokes a common cause. The principle is due to H. Reichenbach and has been largely studied in Boolean algebras and elsewhere.The results published so far bring about a question whether there is a small (countable) Boolean algebra with CCC. In this note we construct such an example.
