Michael
Hoolihan was courting Frances Phelan. The young couple sat in the
parlor of the girl's house night after night, much to the annoyance of
old man Phelan. One night he couldn't take any more. Standing at the
top
of the stairs, he yelled down, "What's that young fella doin' here all
hours of the night?" "Why, Dad, " said Frances, "Michael was
just telling me everything that's in his heart!" "Well, next
time, " roared Phelan, "just let him tell you what's in his
head, and it won't take half as long!"
