Hill of Down
Co. MeathThere was once two boys who were very foolish and who used to stay until midnight pitching buttons. When they would have finished pitching the would go behind the churchyard to divide them. One night a man was going by and he heard them saying "One for you and another for me". He ran and told a police man and the two of them went to the place. They boys were still saying "One for you and another for me". They thought it was the devil and angel counting the souls. So they took to go and never stopped until they reached the barracks.- Collector
