The last rights, father O’Riely’s last meal

Father O’Riely and father O’Brien

 

I think I’m having a heart attack here father O’Brien.

I tink I’m dieing.

Quick give me the last rights.

O father O’Riely,

you always get indigestion after you eat red meat!

O yer that’s right, just as well you reminded me!

We might have wasted a good ‘last rights’ for nothing!

I don’t suppose it would have done me any harm anyway!

No but it’s best to be on the safe side don’t you think father O’Riely!?

Yer I suppose your right father O’Brien.
