- Long ago there was a man living in the townland of Caherogullane. One night he was going to the shop with his butter and eggs to sell them and when he reached a certain part of the road he saw a woman lying in the middle of the road and a white coat around her. He stopped and took off his hat and he began praying. The woman disappeared.
