    A Religious Story 28 -6 - '38
    There was a man and woman one time who were Protestants and when the woman was dying she told someone to go for the priest. When the priest came the man stood before him in the door and would not let him in. The priest asked him was he going to let him in and he said he was not. So the priest took out his stole and prayed for a while. Then he passed in and left the man standing in the doorway. When he had attended the woman he passed out again. So the man had to send for the priest then to get him out of the door.
