1. A Presbyterian minister of the early days settled near the headwaters of the Susquehanna. A good man, he was, but full of humor & ready with his repartee on all occasions. Jack Rickitt, a quasi-parishioner, but who was more punctual at the river than at church, presented the minister one Monday morning with a fine string of pickerel. The minister thanked him gravely for the gift. "But parson," suggested Jack, still retaining the fish, "those fish were caught yesterday. Perhaps yer conscience won't let you eat'm."
"Jack" replied the minister, stretching out his hands toward the string, "there's one thing I know--the pickerel were not to blame!"
