“Photograph takenof a Quern stone with a No 2 Brownie Camera and enlarged to 5.5 x 3.5.”
(ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)of the stone is quite plain. The diameter of this one is about 20".- The following I had from James Quirke Ballybehy, aged 76.
His father spent the day cutting splinters of "bog-deal" with a sharp knife. They (the splinters) were tied in bundles and hung on an iron peg driven into the wall close to the fire. At night, during meal-time, one of the family held one of these lighted splinters over the table while the meal was going on.
Later, the splinters were followed by what he called "dips" - that is cotton or woollen threads were dipped in melted fat usually obtained from goats.
He further told me that they found some of the splinters carefully hidden by the old man in his bed when he died- Faisnéiseoir
