- Long ago people were very much for dancing, and they used to have a dance mostly in every house at that time.
The boys and girls would go looking for a fiddler the night before, and then he would come to the house they told him. When he came into the house, the girls would go out in the floor and call the boys for a dance with them. It was a penny a reel at that time, and when collected they would give all the money to the fiddler and the house-keeper. They used to have no lamps at that time only splinters and candles up in every corner of the house for the night of the dance.- Collector
