Joke No. 243

The Case

The case concerned a will and Kelly was a witness.

"Was the deceased," asked the attorney, "In the habit of
talking to himself when he was alone?"

"I don't know," said the� Irishman.

"Come now man, you don't know and yet you pretend
you were intimately acquainted with the deceased?"

"Well, Mr. Lawyer," said Kelly, "I never happened to be
with him when he was alone. "
