Paddy was a youthful and hard working Irishman at a Coastal village in Ireland. Daily he would pole a heavy old punt out to sea then work a heavy iron grapple to bring up the sand oysters which he sold to the local ice works. He was a man of regular habits and always arrived home each day at a certain time. Sadly, Paddy did not realise the heavy grappling was taking a toll on his faulty heart.

One day hefailed to come home so his wife contacted the Police to investigate himbeing missing. They rowed out and found Paddy dead in the punt, besidehim a huge grapple full of oysters he'd tried to hoist aboard.Headlines next day in the 'Irish Times Newspaper' Said...
