- About forty years ago candles were made in this district. When the people used to kill old cows they used to save the tallow for the use of making candles. This was the way they made them. They first got the tallow and melted it into a liquid. They then would get a mould the shape of a candle and they would fill it with tallow. Then they would get a cord and and put it though the middle of the tallow. Then they would put in a cool place to harden. When it would be hard they would take the candle out of the mould. But they were not as good as they candles we use nowadays, they were much dirtier and greasier. This job was chiefly the women's work, and they used to make about thirty of these candles every day.
