    Long ago there was a church in Durmultan. One night it left Drumultan and crossed the river Flesk, and is now in Killsarcon. A large stone from it dropped into the river where it crossed and any flood that came never stirred it. There is one remarkable thing about the same church that in the opening of any grave, there was never a worm or insect of any kind seen there.
