    the animal is bringing all the luck home with him. Any one who is selling an animal always gives some luck money as every one who is buying them is expecting it. There is a stone at Rakestreet and a girl who would jump this stone three times would be sure to get married that year, or if they are looking for one to marry them they used stand on the rock for a half day. This stone is situated on the left hand side of the road going down.
