   Merryman

   Merryman lived at the old castle of Walterstown. One day he was going by Walterstown with a horse and he was going quickly and the horse was frothing out of the mouth. Peter Butterlys Father shouted at him "Why is the horse frothing out of the mouth. Merryman shouted back "Because he can not spit out".

   Weather Lore

   (1) The Pimpernel that grows on the banks of ditches, closes its head when it is going to rain, and when it keeps its head open, it is going to be fine.
   (2) When the starlings are in a cluster in the fields it is going to rain, and when they fly high it is a sign of fine weather.
   (3) When you hear the train from a far distance, it is going to rain.
   (4) When you see the Northern Lights in the sky at night, it is a sign of bad weather.
   (5) When you see the cat with her back to the fire, it is a sign of a storm.
   (6) When people's pains grow worse, it is going to rain.
