- There is a little island called Iniskeel near Narin Co Donegal. There are no dwelling houses on this island except the ruins of an old Church. St Conal's well is there and people say that if you are going to die within a year the water in the well will turn red in you dip your foot in it. People go there to make stations but the stations are not finished until you go to Saint Conal's well at Derrlaghtconal near Doohary.
There are two rocks there and the imprint of his knee and elbow are to be seen in the rocks. The water lies in these imprints even in the hottest day of Summer.- Collector
