Religious Stories
A story is told loaclly about two young men who were pump sinking. While doing so heard a bell which came from the Church. After an argument they set out to see what it was about. On reaching the spot they were informed that Mass was going to be held. They decided to wait and hear Mass. After the celebration of Mass they returned to their work. While they were absent the derbis fell in to the hole. On their return they found a group of people shovelling it up, their belief being that the men were under the earth.
