- There are many beggars in the country and they call often at our house. There are different ones that come. Some of them are called Mc Eall, McGinley, O'Donnell and many othersSome of them have bags and sell time and others have broaches, pencils and pens and many other things. The people nearly always buy something from them as they know they are poor. Some of them ask you to make tea for them and others ask for money and sometimes eggs. They say "God bless you" if you give them anything. They walk from place to place. Several sometimes together but they do not agree. They look for shelter in houses and often they have to stay out under bushes.
