    A Religious Story
    20th June, 1938.
    About one hundred years ago, there lived a man in the parish of Granard, Co. Longford and he would not go to Mass on a Sunday. The Priest used to come to his house and ask him to go, but it was all of no use.
    The man would often promise, but would never keep his word no matter how often the Priest would come to him.
