    There is a valley near Gueliba (?) mountain called Log na Scuabh where heath grows. Long ago people used to make brooms of the heath. They tied them together with ropes.
    There is a rock at Carnhoonahone called Carrig Owen O Málai (?) because a man of that name built a little house near it.
    There is a field in Keel called Paric a Tobair. There is a well in it. Long ago a woman washed clothes i it and it dried up. Then a woman told her to put Holy-water into the well and the water came back again.
