An English, Irish and Scottish sol
dier were returning' to camp after a
stroll. They were footsore and tired,
and a kindly farmer on his way home
from market gave them a lift on the
road.
The soldiers were very grateful and
wished to reward the farmer for his
kindness.
Said the Englishman: “Let's stand
him a drink.”
“Sure,” said Pat, “that is agin the
law. Let’s give him some baccy.”
