Title'The Token' by Edwin Chirgwin
DescriptionAn true account, written phonetically in the local dialect and which includes a narration of a story very similar to that in ICS9/C/4, about the last moments of a man's life with his wife by his side. Includes little vignettes of life such as the cutting of furze and turf for burning, going to chapel and stories of local lads drinking with air force men. There are also little snippets of folklore such as what you must do if you see a white ass.
