Story
“This occurred in our house long ago.”
This occurred in our house long ago. There were two women living in our house one was a Catholic and the other a Protestant. One beautiful evening the Catholic said to the Protestant I could take the slates off your house to-night.
"All I have to do is pray"
That very night the slates were all blown off the house. That was the night of the big wind.
