Sisters Mary Catherine, Maria Theresa, Katherine Marie, Rose Frances & Mary Kathleen
left the Convent on a trip to St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City and were sight-seeing on a Tuesday in July .
It was hot and humid in town and their traditional
garb was making them so uncomfortable, they decided to stop in at Patty McGuire's Pub for a cold soft drink.
Patty
had recently added special legs to her barstools, which were the talk of the fashionable eastside neighborhood. All 5 Nuns
sat up at the bar and were enjoying their Cokes when Monsignor Riley and Father McGinty entered the bar through the front
door.
They, too, came for a cold drink when they were shocked and almost fainted at what they saw.
