He rebuked her and she said that she thought it was not right to have holy water in a protestant house. He told her that it was not right for her to have her room without it and ordered her to get a bottle of water which he would bless. She brought the water and he blessed it. The priest told her never to be without holy water again. He told her to sprinkle the walls of her room with it and Katty was never without holy water after. She was never troubled with the ghost afterwards although she heard him going through the house.
