In court, the lorry company's hot-shot solicitor was questioning Seamus..
'Didn't you say to the Police at the scene of the accident, 'I'm
fine?'*asked the solicitor.
Seamus responded: *'Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just* *loaded
my favourite cow, Bessie, into the...'*
*'I didn't ask for any details',* the solicitor interrupted..
*'Just* *answer the
question. Did you not say, at the scene of the accident,'I'm fine!'?'*
Seamus said, *'Well, I had just got Bessie into the trailer and I was
driving down the road....'
The solicitor interrupted again and said, *'Your Honour, I am trying to
establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the
police on the scene that he was fine. Now several weeks after the accident,
he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to
simply answer the question..' *
By this time, the Judge was fairly interested in Seamus's answer and said to
the solicitor: *'I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favourite
cow, Bessie'.
Seamus thanked the Judge and proceeded. *'Well as I was saying, I had just
loaded Bessie, my favourite cow, into the trailer and was driving her down
the road when this huge lorry and trailer came through a stop sign and hit
my trailer right in the side. I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was
thrown into the other. I was hurt, very bad like, and didn't want to
move.. However,
I could hear old Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible
pain just by her groans.*
Shortly after the accident, a policeman on a motorbike turned up. He could
hear Bessie moaning and groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at
her, and saw her condition, he took out his gun and shot her between the
eyes.** **Then the policeman came across the road, gun still in hand,
looked at me, and said, 'How are you feeling?'**
**'Now what would you have said?*
'Didn't you say to the Police at the scene of the accident, 'I'm
fine?'*asked the solicitor.
Seamus responded: *'Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just* *loaded
my favourite cow, Bessie, into the...'*
