Old Jack's wife has died so he and the minister visit the stonemason to discuss a suitable epitaph for the headstone. As Jack's wife's was a woman of strong Christian faith they agree that the epitaph should read, "Christ she were thine."
A few days after the funeral Jack goes to visit his wife's grave and appalled to see that it reads, "Christ she were thin."
Furious, he goes to the stonemason and says, "Now then y'daft bat, tha forgot t' 'E' on't wife's 'eadstone."
The stonemason apologises and promises to rectify it.
A few days later Jack revisits his wife's grave and is delighted to see that it now reads,
"Eeeeeh, Christ she were thin."
