- There is a Holy Well on the borders of Mount Leinster called Ciluctain. There was a lot of people cured there. There were crutches, walking sticks statues, & crosses provided for the lame & the feeble. The usual custom was to take a bottle of water home & wash the wounds. The people were required to go three times & bring a bottle of water home each time.
