17/20 Oh, you don't know I am stopping at the presbytery. I happened to meet the curate, Father Francis, in Montreal--we were school-boys together--and he was about the wildest, most mischievous fellow I ever met. We were immense friends--a fellow-feeling, you know, makes us wondrous kind. Judge of my amazement on meeting him on Notre Dame street, in soutane and broad-brimmed hat, and finding he had taken to Mother Church. You might have knocked me down with a feather, I assure you. |
