A Story

24th June 1938

A woman and her daughter were going a journey in a train, about one hundred years ago.
Before they came to the Station the woman said to the little girl. "Now when you come as far as the Station don't pass any remark off the Station master's nose. The little girl said;"No Mammie I won't".
When they came as far as the Station the little girl said to her mother, "Mammie you told me not to pass any remark about the station-master's nose and sure he has no nose at all."
