In Dublin a zealous policeman caught a cab driver in the act of driving
recklessly. The officer stopped him and said:
“What’s yer name?”
“You’d better try to find out,” said the driver peevishly.
“Sure, and I will,” said the policeman as he went around to the side of
the cab where the name ought to have been painted, but the letters had
been rubbed off.
“Aha!” cried the officer. “Now ye’ll git yerself into worse disgrace than
ever. Yer name seems to be oblitherated.”
“You’re wrong!” shouted the driver triumphantly. “’Tis O’Sullivan.”
