“One day Colmcille was passing through Umricam.”
One day Colmcille was passing through Umricam. When he was walking along some men saw him and they gathered more men and started to chase him. They followed him for a long time and when they started to draw closer to him, Colmcille reached a river. The only way he could escape from these men was to jump across the river.He walked back a few steps and took a running jump and jumped across the river. On the other side of the river he landed on a rock with one of his feet and the mark of his foot was left on the rock. The mark of his foot is still to be seen on the rock out beside the river in Umricam.
