WOULD BE OF MORE VALUE
Father o'Leary's Facetious Rejoinder
! to John PhiIpot Curran an Ex-
ample of Real Wit.

One day the famous John Philpot
Curran, who was also very partial to
the said corned mutton, did me the
honor to meet him. To enjoy the So
c1ety of such men was an intellectual
treat. They were great friends and
seemed to have a mutual respect for
each others talent and, as it may
easily be imagined, OLeary versus
Curran was no bad match.
One day after dinner Curran said to
him: Reverend father wish you
were st. Peter"
And why, counselor, would you wish
that l were st. Peter?" asked
OLeary.
Because, reverend father in that
case" said CurTan, you would have
the keys to heaven, and you could let
me in"
by my honor and conscience, coun-
selor, replied the divine, 1T would be
better for you that had the keys of
the other place, then | could let you
out"
Curran enjoyed the Joke, which he
admitted had good deal of justice in
it.-From Kellys "reminiscences.
