Summary

Some Irish woodcutters were drinking in the bar and one of them called O'Connell was ready to fight anyone who tried to put them out, even though it was after hours. The boss wanted them to be removed, and the contributor went down to the bar. The man complained that he didn't get the bottle of whisky he had requested an hour before. The contributor asked him if it was for the next morning he wanted the whisky, and the man agreed. The contributor promised to get it then, and the men went. He managed to fulfil his promise.
