- There was an old shepherd one time and he was completely paralised on one side and he had to use crutches. He travelled from Ramelton to Letterkenny once a week and he happened to meet my daddy one day and he asked him was it warts that was on his hand. He said that it was. The shepherd said that he could take them off if my daddy would count them for him and so he counted them for him. The next day he came round and from that time the warts gradually went away and there is not a trace of them to be seen now.
