    This story concerns the same man in Westmeath.
    It was a very wet day and the priest was passing the old man's house. The priest wore white shoes and stockings. The man was standing at the door when the priest was passing. "Its a great day for young ducks and dockens" said the priest "Yes your reverence," said the man and for white shoes and stockens."
