    The players get some horse shoes each and throw at the stick and see if they can ring it. It is not played very much at the forge now.

    The children who die unbaptized are buried at night. There is a graveyard in Lullymore where unbaptized children are buried. There are a lot of stories about graveyards. Mothers sometimes sleep on their son's grave.
