“At Christmastide in the pit districts ‘guisors,’ or boys who have dressed themselves out with strange masks to render themselves as awful -looking objects as possible, proceed at night, carrying turnip-lanterns suspended on poles, and call at the neighbouring farm-houses for the purpose of collecting what money they can. The writer of this notice has often met with these unearthly-looking groups in wild places, sometimes relieved on a hill top by the light of the moon or of the blazing pit fires”.
