    At one time, two women from this district rose at six o'clock in the morning and walked to Derry, carrying a crock home with them, and reached the house at seven in the evening.
    About thirty years ago a man from this district went on foot to Derry to sell his cow. He was going over Malin bridge as the sun rose at six o'clock in the morning and he came over it again as the sun was setting at six in the evening.
