   one night a priest was returning home from a feast he met a woman on the road. The woman kept before the priest until they came to a house. The woman then dissappeared. The preist went into the house and there was no one inside only a man and he was dying. The man told him that he was not at confession for the past thirty years. The priest heard his confession and said that he would come in the morning to give him communion. The preist saw a picture of a woman on the wall. The priest asked the man who was that in the picture. The man told him that that was his mother and that she was dead for the past thirty years. The priest then told the man that he met that woman on the road. The priest then went home and went to bed. The priest went to the man's house in the morning
