- Many years ago young folk here around were not allowed much freedom, especially girls. It was considered highly improper for a girl to be seen out alone after nightfall unless accompanied by her parents or brothers.
It was also considered incorrect for a girl to be seen walking, with a young man, even in broad daylight. So there was no chance of lovemaking whatever.
The father of a young girl meet a neighbour at a fair. They both went into a public-house, and after a few bottles of stout each, the girl's father would suggest that he thought the other man's son would be a good "match" for his daughter. They would then begin bargaining about how much "fortune" should be paid, and after a few hours arguing the "match" was generally made.
