- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)Hardly any lone (travelling) traveller passed the country now but go in bands. They are called tinkers and gypsies and earn their living by making and selling cans and jobbing on asses and horses. The gypsie women carry baskets round on their arms containing little articles such as tie-pens, collar-studs, hair-clips, combs and brushes and mirrors and also picture frames and pictures, and Irish hand made lace; these they sell making good profit on some of them. They also sell floor carpets and linoleum. Some of the gypsies are very well off but mostly all the tinkers are quite the opposite, because they beg from door to door while the gypsies buy every thing they want except milk.
