- (continued from previous page)St Peter again and he asks her if she ever did any other good turn. So she said she gave a drink to a hungry dog. "That will help you by the second fire" says St Pete, and he thrawin' milk on the fire. "Now" says he, did you ever give away anything else." "I did", says the woman, I gave a towel to a poor neighbour one time. "Good" says St Peter, that towel will get you through the last fire, and with that a towel was put round the woman and she got across the last fire. She wakened up then and from that day to the day she died she was always kind to the poor.
