Mildred, the church gossip, and self-appointed monitor of the church's morals, kept sticking her nose into other people's business.

Several members did not approve of her extra-curricular activities but feared her enough to maintain silence .

She made a mistake, however, when she accused Frank,
a new member, of being an alcholic
after she saw his old pick up parked
in front of the town's bar one afternoon.

She emphatically told Frank ( and several others ) that everyone seeing it their would know what he was doing !

Frank, a man of few words, stared at her for a moment and just walked away.
He didn't explain, defend , or deny.
He said nothing...

Later that evening , Frank quietly parked his pickup in front of Mildred's house, walked home......and left it their all night.

You gotta love Frank!.
