   On Hallow Eve an apple is hung from the ceiling and you have to catch the apple in your mouth before you get it. Also a dish of flour is put on the table and a sixpence is put in the dish. You search for the sixpence and if you get it in your mouth you can keep it. On that night also gates and carts and other implements are carried away from the owners place to a far distance.
