  1. Tutty and Henry

    Share Share Post
    Some years ago, there lived in Rochestown an eccentric old J.P. named Henry. He very much disliked the unpunctuality of people. One day the postman (Mr. Tutty) was late so Mr. Henry resolved to shoot him, but when the time came he did not shoot him but became a great pal of his.
    Some time afterwards Mr. Tutty married Mr. Henry's daughter. Mr. Tutty who is now dead, used to live in no. 3 Glasthule Terrace which is now occupied by the Presentation Brothers.
