An Honor To Tipperary
Jests Home
A GENTLEMAN from Ireland, on entering a London tavern, saw a countryman
of his, a Tipperary squire, sitting over his pint of wine in the
coffee-room. My dear fellow, said he, what are you about? For the
honor of Tipperary, don't be after sitting over a pint of wine in a
house like this!--Make yourself aisy, countryman, was the reply,
It's the seventh I have had, and every one in the room knows it.
