- One day a woman was going to Confession. She was deaf. She told the priest that she stole a fat hen. A little boy was outside the Confession-box, so he heard her. He was barefooted. When the woman was coming out she walked on his foot. He cried. The priest came out and asked him why was he crying. He said. "That woman who stole the hen walked on my foot."
