It got to be our turn to feed and board the travelling minister that preached 6 or 7 churches in our charge on a 2 to 3 week basis.
He'd hit as many churches as he could on a Sunday morning and then go home with a parishoner for Sunday dinner and a place to sleep for the night.
Sunday dinner at our shotgun modest home was ample and well fixed.
Boarding accomodations were more basic.
When we retired for the night the minister had to share a bed with me.We went to opposite sides of the bed ,disrobed ,and donned our nightshirts.
I dropped to my knees and bowed my head and the preacher did the same on his side of the bed except that he rested his elbows on the edge of the bed and clasped his hands togather.
We stood up at about the same time and I blew out the coal oil light and we slid under the quilts.
Laying there under the quilts in the dark my curiosity got the better of me.......
" Preacher ? What did you just do before we got in bed ? "
" Why , the same thing you did , Butch ."
" WOW ! You're sure gonna catch hell in the morning ! The pot is over here on my side . "
