Brenda O'Maily had been cooking dinner when someone knocked
at the door.
- Hi, Brenda. Let me in - said Tim Finnegan. - I've got to tell
you something
- Come on in - was her reply. - But where's my husband?
-
That's what I wanted to talk about. There was an accident at our brewery.
-
Oh my God! - exclaimed frightened Brenda.
- Be strong, Brenda! Your husband's
gone
Through her tears, shivering, Brenda mouthed:
- Explain to me, what
happened, Tim!
- It was awful. Paddy fell right into the cauldron where Guiness
Stout had been brewed, and drowned.
- Jesus Christ, tell me the truth, Tim,
at least his death was quick?
- Unluckily not so.
- ???
-Three times
he got out to have a piss.
