| Date | 6 Apr 1807 |
| Description | Two Irish stare in fright at a white cat sitting on the wall of a church. The man on the left says: "How now Honey - why dont stop - take heart and go on [...] Patrick I believe it nothing but a great white Tom Cat after all." The other replies: "A Tom cat indeed - will you make me believe that a Tom Cat will be fool enough to get out of his warm bed at twelve o'clock at night to go sit upon a church wall to make believe he was a ghost? Answer me dat."
