   I was in a corner of a field, too. I suppose it is there yet; I haven't been up around there now for years, so I couldn't say for certain this little corner would be filled up with [?] clay and stuff and faced on the outside with stones, up to the level of the ditch.
   I suppose during the bad times a lot of children need be born dead, or would die after being born, before they would be baptised and they buried them in there places.

2. Forge Water

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   I always heard that there was a great cure in Forge water for warts and sores. The water that the smith cools the irons in. I was [?] time and I had an awful lot of warts on my hands. They were all [?] with them. and an old man told me to go to a Forge three times and wash my hands well in the forge water. I went down to [?] forge three times and I washed me hands in the water as he told me ; and after the third washing the warts went away, and I never had a wart since. and I was after trying everything, the snail on the thorn, and the stones, and the water out of stones. I tried all these and they were all no good. But the forge water cured them for me.
