Long ago for lights the people had rush candles. They took the green part of the rush and dipped the white part into the fat of a cow or a sheep. If a cow or a sheep died they saved the fat of them to make candles. A schoolmaster in Ballyconnell the name of Mr. Griffith learned all his lessons by blowing a coal. He would blow the coal till a blaze would come in it. Then he would read with the light of the blaze. When the blaze when out he blew it again.
