  2. It is told that once a woman with a baby called into a house in Ireland and asked to be kept for the night. The people were poor but the woman kept her and gave her all she had in the way of food and a bed.
    The woman of the house had a baby who was very ill. The strange woman bathed her baby and told the other woman to bathe hers in the same water. The woman did so and next morning found her baby completely cured. Then she knew that it was the Blessed Virgin Mary who was there.
