    to go and tell the rascal to come to him until he'd speak to him. The police obeyed his order and when the priest came in view Momford was sitting in his armchair and on seeing the priest coming he tried to go in and could not move. When the priest came as far as him he never mentioned the gun but craved the priest to let him go out of the chair. The priest said he had nothing to do with him so after several hours he let him go. So that ended his cranky ways.
