- About 60 years ago a girl named Nora Callaghan was living with her parents in Ballymacelligot. One day the girl got such a deadly faint that her parents thought she was dead. They brought a coffin and they put her into it. After three days they heard a moan. They opened the coffin and they found that the girl was alive. She rose up and she told the parents that God told her she was to live for three years more.
She lived for three years just and she died one Wednesday at 1 o'clock.
