- About four miles from my house there is a Glen. It is called Gleanna Cárthaigh. There was Mass said there long ago. The Priest and people were discovered in this glen. It was forbidden by English Law at the time to have Mass in a house or Church.
There are lots of trees growing around it. There is also a stream of Water flowing beside it. It is not far from Newmarket. My Aunt told it to me on my way to the town of Newmarket.- Collector
