    Kilgobnet Church
    There was a man of the Kellihers living in Kilgobnet and he was digging earth inside in the church. He held on digging until he met the bones of a corpse.
    That night he was told to gather all the earth back into the hole and he did.

    I heard it from my Grandfather aged 84 years.
