    .horse,three shillings for a pony and two shillings for an ass
    Long ago we had a forge. There was also a forge in Nockmeal
    A horse is shod when he is a year and a half, if he were not he would go lame Sometimes a horse loses his shoe and when the people get they put it on themselves.It is said lucky to get a shoe lost
    Some people say the nicest position to have is to be a smith for the smith refused to make the nails that Our Lord was crucified with and it was the tinker made them.
