Story (continued)
“There was a lot of Irish boys went over to Scotland some time ago.”
(continued from previous page)and two lights came out and went up to the altar. A priest came out and asked if there was anybody to clerk Mass. There was no answer so he called again. He called a third time and then the boy answered and he went up. They got on with the Mass until the last. He got a good blessing from the sinner to the saint. It was counted back that he had that Mass to say. It was supposed that he was coming there for a hundred years and could get no one to serve.
