- St Stephen's Day in this disitrict is commemorated by an number of young boys and girls going out to bury the wren
When they come (go) to a house they sing
The wren, the wren, (the wren the king of all birds
On St Stephen's Day was found in a furze
Although she was little
Her family was great
Rise up young lady
And give us a treat
Ir. we'll bury the wren
At your garden gate
On St Brigids day rush crosses are made.
On St Patrick's day shamrogs are wore.
On Shrove Tuesday pan cakes are made.(continues on next page)- Collector
