“There were great people around here about twenty years ago to tell yarns...”
(ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)I says, "Hi up on a buachallán with yez" The piates were just down for the supper at the time. And we went away through the country up to Dublin and around the city and we were back just as the spuds were boiling.
The greatest lie you ever heard they were able to spin 'em.
- Long ago they used bury heads of animals under the alter in Churches. there is a head of a cow or horse under the altar in Newbawn Chapel. That was to give an Echo in the Chapel.
- I often heard tell of hanging up a head of cabbage in the chimney. When the Catterpillars would be ating the cabbage they would pull a head of cabbage and hang it in the chimney to do away with the catterpillars.
As fast as the cabbage would be melting and withering away in the chimney the catterpillars would be dying on the cabbage outside.
