- William lived in this town one time. He used to work for his living with the farmer's. One day a missioner met him and asked him to go to confession. William said he would.
When Bill went in to confession the priest asked him his sin's and how many time's he got drunk. The priest got angry with him. He was about to hunt him. He said "Do you know that you are standing on the brink of hell."
The priest was going to give him absolution when Bill said "Wisha" isn't it a queer place to have your Confession box
