Currier? Courier?

The “Catholic Currier” – that’s the immigrant from Dublin who brushes out your steed after you’ve ridden to the hounds all afternoon with the other members of the Orange Order?

Miss Pennywhistle worked so hard to teach us fifth graders the basics about homonyms.

She would have been gravely disappointed if, 40 years later, I still confused ‘currier’ with ‘courier.’

(Gee, Ken, all I wanted you to do was fix the typo. No need to engage in “ad homonym.”)
