- (continued from previous page)church in Burrane graveyard. There are no disused graveyards in my parish. Unbaptised children are buried in the same grave as the adults. Local people whose people are buried in distant graveyards go to be buried with them.
- When the person is dead a monthh some people have Mass at the house. Later in the day a crowd of friends go to the graveyard carrying whiskey and wine. This they distribute among the friends. If they had any wine left over it is spilled on the grave. This is called the "flagging" day.
