- (continued from previous page)Blessed Wells
Great number of boys in the parish are called after him.
The 29th October is observed as a holiday in the parish and people go to the Blessed Well in Corker in Kiltartan where the saint was born and perform rounds there on that day.
Nobody works in the parish and people from neighbouring parishes who came in were punished by their horse refusing to work and sometimes dying.
