  1. Historical Tradition.
    Cromwell's army passed through my district. He knocked down a castle in Dromsicane known as the boinn. He sent a body of soldiers to Cullen they burned a church and a convent. Cromwell was supposed to be a shoemakers son. It is said that the devil was tearing the flesh off his body when he was dying.
