Names

I have known a number of unfortunately-named people, among them Olive Grove and Orson Carter. I narrowly escaped being named John Thomas myself (notta lotta people know that!), being rescued at my baptism by my Godfather, on whom be eternal peace and my undying gratitude. I am grateful to my friend Gregory for sending me this election poster for the wonderfully named Young Boozer.
With a name like that, the poor chap deserves to get elected.

On a happier note, in my Parish there is a deceased lady, who I did not know, whose anniversary occurs around Easter.

Her name was Agnes Day.
