    the voice in the dream told him about the night before. There he found the well. His wife, who was a cripple for seven years before that, asked her husband to take her to the well and she rubbed some of the water on her limbs, and immediately she was cured. People go to this well on St Patrick's day to perform the stations of the cross there. The people who go there always leave some small offering, such as a medal, at the well when going away.
