    I remember a station at Jamesy R's long ago and Jamesy had no money to pay the priest.

    "I remember a station at Jamesy R's long ago and Jamesy had no money to pay the priest. He (the priest) got in to a terrible rage and at last said he'd go home without taking his breakfast. Jamesy at once went out and borrowed a pound, and then came in, and said "Here Father is a pound for you and take your "brukisht." His dues would be about 10/6."
