candles were in constant use by the
Scotch peasantry. Boiled animal fat
gave the required tallow, and the same
green rushes as were used for cruisie

In making flashlights all the green
coating Of these rushes was stripped
off. but for candle wick thin strip
was left on either side of the pith to
strengthen and support it, Otherwise
the manufacture of these two lights
was very similar This substance from
the rushes when dried was tied TO a
rod, then dipped into the boiling fat
and allowed to cool, and this process
was repeated until the rushlight, or
candle. had become the desired thick

in molds The tape was passed through

These molds. during the days Of the

watchers were posted at convenient
