  1. There is a ford in my neighbour's mountain where the Irish priests used to say Mass in olden times when the English robbed the churches and carried off the holy vessels and the old people always call it Cas na Cúinne. The place is overgrown now with weeds and shrubs. There were people seen in that place for a long time afterwards wearing white clothes like priests and when a person would move near the place the person would disappear out of sight
