    These people are usually seen about the district before a races, or a fair, because they want to gather milk, butter, bread, and tea to make tea in the races or fair, then they sell it. In this way they make some money. There are a few old people who have been travelling around the district now and then for over fifty years and are welcome by the people. They are named Flannagans and Summers.
