Pat and Mike were out on the links one
day having a fine round in the beautiful
Irish sunshine.  The eighteenth hole runs
steeply uphill, but when you reach the 
green, you are rewarded with a panoramic
view of the surrounding countryside.

Now Pat is having a terrific round, and
as he trudges up to the green, he sees
that he's lying about 20 feet from the
pin - a makeable birdie putt which will
give him the course record if he can hole
it.

While Pat is lining up the shot, he
notices a funeral procession moving
moving along the road beneath them.
He walks to the edge of the green,
takes of his hat, and solemnly watches
the procession until it is out of sight.

Mike is deeply moved.  "Paddy," he says
"I'm touched by your love of humanity,
that you would interrupt such an important
putt to pay respect to the dead".

Pat puts hat back on and says, "Well, she
was a good wife to me".
