Irish wit

The wit of the Irish
Father

O'Malley rose from his bed one morning. It was a fine spring day in his new Ballina parish.

He walked to the window of his bedroom to get a deep breath of the beautiful day
outside. He then noticed there was a donkey lying dead in the
middle of his front lawn.

Not knowing who
else to call, he promptly called the local police
station. The conversation went like

this:''Good

morning. This is Sergeant Jones. How might I help you?"
"And the best of the day ter yer good self.

This is Father O'Malley at St.. Francis Xavier

Catholic Church. There's a donkey lying dead right in der middle of me front
lawn "
Sergeant Jones, considering himself to be quite a wit, replied with a smirk,

"Well now Father, it was always my impression
that you people took care of the last rites!"
There was dead silence on the line for a long

moment and then Father O'Malley

replied:
"Ah, 'to be sure, that is true; but we are also obliged to notify the next of kin."
