- The Powerful Tree and WellThere was a tree called "Crann Cómacíac" middle ways in the crew line not far from the village.
There was a well under the tree.
St Patrick said Mass there once.
He had no clerk but a voice from the tree answered it.
Some time after a woman washed her clothes in the well.
It disappeared from that spot and is now in a field on our farm.
A man broke sticks off the above tree and when he was to go home he put the bundle on his back but he clung to the tree bundle and all. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
