    One night a priest got a call to go to a man who was dying. When he was on his way to the house he went into the church. He had not been long in it until he heard something tapping at the window. A man came and put his two hands against the window and told the priest that the sick man was dead. When the priest looked up and saw the two hands on the window he got a fright and fell down dead.
