Title

Christmas Alms

Subject

Irish tale from County Mayo about a man who loses family after wife turns away a beggar; he becomes a monk

Description

Author's Note: The following story, of which I here give a translation, is no doubt largely due to the vivid imagination of some itinerant mendicant working in his own interest.
