  1. (continued from previous page)
    good Friday is the next feast-day after St. Patrick's Day. Our Lord was crucified on Mount Calvary on that day.
    East Saturday is the next one after Good Friday. The Lenten Fast is over at twelve o'clock on that day. The following day is Easter Sunday. It is the day Our Lord rose from the dead. It is the custom that the children hold a feast outside on that day and they light a fire and boil eggs and make tea.
