LEGEND
| |
LINCOD ( 1904 ) - It has been a tradition that when
a person is dead, the neighbors and relatives will offer group prayers.
One day, a mother with her two children went to attend a prayer gathering
for their dead neighbor. While they were on their way, they saw a
large-sized man sitting on a wooden bench at the shoulder of the road.
The man was wearing a heavy black robe that matched his ugly and frightful
face. Frightened, the mother and her children ran as fast as they
could and shouted for help: " Tabang! Tabang ! May makahahadlok
nga tawo nga nag-lingkod daplin sa dalan ! " (Help! Help! There's
a man with frightful face sitting at the side of the road! ) "
Lingkod " means to sit.
The news about the ugly man sitting at the side of the road scared
the villagers. From that time on, the barrio people named their place
as Lincod.
