  1. A Well

    Share Share Post
    There is an old well convenient to our house. It is called Faul Well. Long ago people used to pray there and they used to bring some of the water home with them as a cure. It is said that a woman washed her feet in the well at one time and that it moved six yards from its former position. There is a running stream going from it.
