THE OLD FARMER

THE OLD FARMERAn old farmer lay so dangerously ill that the doctor gave no hope of recovery.Whilst lying in an apparently semi-conscious state, he suddenly opened his eyes, and said to his wife, who was watching by his bedside: "Mary, that's a nice smell, it's just like a ham cooking. I almost think I could eat a little, if it is cooked."The reply was, "Thee get on with the dying, that ham is for the funeral."
