The priest and the Mule


Recommended Posts

Father O'Malley rose from his bed one morning. It was a fine spring day in his new Ballina parish.

 

He walked to the window of his bedroom to get a deep breath of the beautiful day outside. He then noticed there was a donkey lying dead in the middle of his front lawn. Not knowing who else to call, he promptly called the local police station.

 

The conversation went like this -

 

"Good morning. This is Sergeant O'Donnell. How might I help you?"

 

"And the best of the day ter yer good self. This is Father O'Malley at St Francis Xavier Catholic Church. There's a donkey lying dead right in der middle of me front lawn"

 

Sergeant O'Donnell, considering himself to be quite a wit, replied with a smirk, "Well now Father, it was always my impression that you people took care of the last rites!"

 

There was dead silence on the line for a long moment and then Father O'Malley replied: "Ah, 'to be sure, that is true; but we are also obliged to notify the next of kin."
