- One day there was an English man an Irish man and a Scotch man drinking in a Bar. The English man and the Scotch man were getting in all the drink. They would not let the Irishman get in any. But they intended to make the Irish man pay for it all. When he had found out the trick they had played he asked the Bar man did he ever see two sorts of whisky taken out of one barrel. The Bar man said that that was a thing impossible. All right said the Irishman come down to the cellar. They both went down to the cellar. The Irishman bored two holes on the barrel. He told the Bar man to put his two hands on that till he would get two glasses. When he reached the Bar he wrote a letter telling the first one that would come in where he would get the Barman.
