Summary

The escaped monkey and the two old spinsters.

A monkey escaped when the Politician sank and reached Gerinish. It went into the house of two old spinsters, who thought it was the captain. They gave it soup, which it spat out. It did the same with meat. It was a Friday, and one suggested it must be a Catholic, because they don't take meat on Fridays.
