A preacher wanted to raise money for his
church and on being told
that there was a fortune in horse-racing,
decided to purchase one
and enter it in the races.
However, at the local auction, the going
price for a horse
was so high that he ended up buying a donkey
instead.
He figured that since he had it, he might as

To his surprise, the donkey came in

this headline:
PREACHER'S ASS SHOWS
The preacher was so pleased with the donkey
that he entered
it in the race again, and this time it won.
The paper read:
PREACHER'S ASS OUT IN FRONT
The bishop was so upset with this kind of
publicity that he ordered
the preacher not to enter the donkey in
another race.
The paper headline read:
BISHOP SCRATCHES PREACHER'S ASS
This was too much for the bishop, so he
ordered the preacher
to get rid of the donkey.
The preacher decided to give it to a nun in
a nearby convent.
The paper headline the next day read:
NUN HAS BEST ASS IN TOWN
The bishop fainted.
He informed the nun that she would have to
get rid of
the donkey, so she sold it to a farmer for
ten dollars.
The next day the paper read:
NUN SELLS ASS FOR $10.00
This was too much for the bishop, so he
ordered the nun to
buy back the donkey and lead it to the
plains where it could run wild.
The next day the headlines read:
