“Down in the Coole there is stone with the prints of Saint Colmans' feet in it.”
Down in Coole there is a stone with the prints of Saint Colmans' feet in it. This stone is flat which always contains water. One day a man was passing by this stone he had a piercing toothache. He drank the water from the stone and immediately his toothache was cured and he has never suffered from a toothache since.
