An Irish Priest Visits His Parishioners... An Irish priest is travelling through the outskirts of his parish, visiting with some of his flock, when he comes across one of his parishioners on the road. ""Mary! Is that you? I haven't seen you or Seamus in months."" said the priest. ""Oh Father! Seamus passed away a few weeks ago."" replies Mary. ""That's terrible news Mary! Were you with him when he passed?"" asked the priest. ""Oh aye Father, I was."" said Mary ""Well, that's good! Did he have any last words for you before he went?"" ""Oh yes Father! Just before he died, he looked up at me and said, 'Mary! Mary! Please put down the gun!""
