- Care of Feet
The people in former times were twenty one when they began to wear boots of any kind. The children don't go bare footed the whole year round but for two or three months in Summer. There are six men in my district who repair boots. There are more shoemakers now than in former times. Clogs are worn still in this district. George Brennan and Joe McCabe wore clogs when they were at school in Dunleer. Clogs are made in Dundalk still. - Transcription guide » You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
