The Fish That Won't Be Lost

 An African woman became a Christian, which enraged her husband. He decided to get rid of her by accusing her of thievery—of stealing his keys.

They began dancing around in a wide circle, ever diminishing in size seeking to achieve their aim of setting the place ablaze. The missionaries fell to their knees in prayer, and became so intent as the wild chanting came closer that they never realized it had ceased.
