  1. (continued from previous page)
    makers are in the nearest town. It was a custom long ago when a person was going to Mass to put on their shoes at a cross road and when returning they would take them off again at the same place and carry them in their hands and then they would walk home barefoot. Clogs were worn years ago but not now in this district.
