Lockets were often worn around the necks of young soldiers who were fighting in wars on foreign soil. The loneliness of being far away from girlfriends or wives could often be assuaged a little by opening the enclosed locket where inside a photo or small print of a loved one could be admired. John Regan of Co. Sligo put this reel on tape for me but neither of us can trace its origin.
