    Extract from composition of :-
    Michael J Milmoe,
    Threen, Keash.
    I have heard the story of a church with a grave-yard attached to it consecrated for Catholic burial. One day a Protestant was buried there. That night the grave-yard seperated into three parts, one remained and the other two moved to different districts, Townagh and Rusheen.
