“Long ago the people used to make mats of straw for the doors when the wind would be blowing.”
Long ago the people used to make mats of straw for the doors when the wind would be blowing. This is how they used to make the mats. They used to get straw and they used to call the handfulls "duils" and when they used to have them made they used to put them up on the doors for shelter.- Collector
