The Sausage in the Pocket (previously The Sexton’s Dog Steals the Sausage from the Parson’s Pocket). A preacher is given a sausage by one of his parishioners and goes directly to the church with it in the rear pocket of his coat. A dog smells the sausage and follows him. When the preacher is in the pulpit, the sexton brings him a book which he had forgotten. So as not to be observed, the sexton bends over and crawls up the steps to the pulpit and pulls on the preacher’s coat. The preacher thinks it is the dog and kicks him.
