    (continued from previous page)
    big tombs and monuments attached to the church - some dating back to the year 1690. They are the graves of people who thought they would never die out. Yet they are completely dead now though occasionally there is an interment in these graveyards from other parts of the country.
    In Fahy outside Bridgetown there is a cross-road where a man was murdered and a heap of stones now marks the place. It was the custom the every person passing by would add a stone to the heap in honour of the man that was murdered.
