    She told me also that when people used to be going on a journey an old woman used to get a burned coal of fire and a grain g of salt and a drop of holy water and put it into the person pocket and say “good luck” and keep shouting good luck until the person used to be gone out of sight.
    When they used to be going to the church they used to have their rosary beads in their hand and they used to be saying the rosary until they reached the church.
