- May Day Customs
1. On May Eve the fairies used come and steal the children and bewitch the cattle if they could get them and therefore no door should be left open after sunset.
Young people should not go out on the hills, nor listen to singing or girls dancing in tne night for they are fairies in disguise and will work harm and above all there should be no fire lighting, for fire is the life of man.
If any food is left from May Eve to May Day it should not be eaten but buried in the garden or thrown over the bounds of the townland for the
dogs.
