  2. Long ago when the priests were being hunted there was only one priest in the city of Kilkenny. There were two people getting married and this priest married them. After some time the married man became unemployed and became a priest hunter. One day he told his wife that he was sick and to send for the priest. The priest came without delay to the house but when he reached it the man was dead.
