- Long-ago in every locality in Ireland there was a man who used to arrange matches and he was called a match-maker. Any young man in the locality who was marriageable and who had a good farm of land the match-maker would try to find a suitable companion for the young man.
The young man would send the match-maker to the girl’s house with an account of the match. The parents of the young (man) girl would go to the man’s house. They would see the farm and the cattle and everything that was in the farm. Then they would agree to go to the nearest town on a fair day.
They would meet in the town and they would go into a public house. The owner of the public house would be very obliging to them and he would give them a room for them-selves. They would buy some drink from him and then they would make the match.
The old man should get some of the fortune in order that he would give control of the farm to the young man.(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
