    one of the crowd puts him on his shoulder and runs away, and the others follow him. Pooka drops his load into a ditch he keeps shouting for help until rescued by the others. Then all stands at the door again. Pooka steals up and rakes another one.
    Then we tie a string from the ceiling and tie an apple to the end of it, we swing the apple, we are to catch this in our mouth. Next morning we feel our mouths sore.
