Eats the Sins of the Dead,

In some parts Of Wales a curious Gus.
tom prevails at funerals. A poor per.
son Is hired-"a long, lean, ugly, Ia.
inevitable rascal"-to perform the du.
ties Of sin eater. Bread and beer are
passed to the man over the corpse or
laid on 1t; these he consumes, and by
the process he Is supposed to take on
him all the sins OF the deceased and
free the person from walking after
death. When a sin eater Is not EN-,
ployed glasses Of wine and funeral bis.
cults are given to each bearer across
the coffin. The people believe that
every drop OF wine drunk at funeral
IL a sin committed by the deceased, but
that by drinking the wine the soul OF
the dead Is released from tue burden OF
the sin,
