   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   In olden times people gave themselves up to the devil on the first of May under a hawthorn tree But if you planted certain twigs in your garden or field charms could not be set in them. Long ago they buried eggs and [?] in other people's land so that they themselves would have plenty of eggs and pigs. There neighbours would have none. They also could suck milk from a briar by the aid of "Old Nick"

   The Dogs' Lodge

   The sculptor who made the dogs was told by many that he had not finished them but he said "Yes I did".
   One day a dummy told him that the dogs had no tongues. It was the first time the dummy spoke. The sculptor cut his throat.

   Name. Mick Twomey (60) Farmer. Native Belvelly. Long ago here in Belvelly was a platform for dancers attended by crowds every night. A priest came along - the people ran away but the old fiddler said "Step out". The priest answered "I will step you out". After that there was no more dancing.
