    One day a widow went to Denis Browne and told him that her son was always drinking his wages. "If I bring him here will you frighten him and tell him not to drink any more," said the woman. Denis Browne said he would and he told her to bring her son to him on the following day. She did so. When he arrived Denis Browne told his servants to get an ass cart. They obeyed. Denis then hung the boy from the shafts of the cart - before his mother's eyes.
