    One time the parish priest in Athea(Rev F Fenton) met two tinkers on the road and he gave one of them two shillings saying "God bless you". He gave the other a half crown and he said "God Almighty bless you" and he asked him what is the difference between "God Bless you" and "God Almighty bless you" and the answer he gave was "sixpence".
