"The Devil's Jump"
38) One day long ago a man was walking along the top of the quarry. He saw a man and started to talk to him. The man asked him to go with him for a drink. They started and walked down, when he saw his friend had two hoofs in place of feet. The man knew that it was the devil and he took a bottle of holy water from his pocket and sprinkled it in front of him. The devil jumped over the edge of the cliff. Ever since then the place is called "The Devils Jump".John Keyes
