   Old Habits or Customs

   When a person sneezed, the listener would say, God bless us

   When people see the new moon they bless themselves

   When the woman of the house is going churning and a stranger to come in he should take the churn.

   When the woman of the house is milking the cow she puts the sign of the cross on her back when she has finished milking

   When a person is going shaking the corn they shake holy water on it

   When a person yawned he would put the sign of the cross on his mouth

   If a sod fell off the fire they would say a visitor would come to the house

   If a hen went through the garden with a straw on her foot they would say there would be a funeral in the district

   If the woman of the house was going churning she would put a quenched coal under the churn

   If the sisers fell and the point of it to stick in the ground they would say some one was leaving the house.
