“There was a priest in Glencar one time called Father Pat Traynor and one day he had to attend a sick call over near the 'Protestant town.”
(continued from previous page)Catholics. He used to go to one house and drink a wee can of buttermilk, go to the next and drink another wee can and the next house was some one hundred and twenty yards away and he used to have to drink a can of water in a stream before he reached it. That man died of thirst in the end.
