  1. There was a well down in Tobernea and all the people used to get water there. One day a woman washed clothes in it and it moved from James Leos land accross the road into Michael O'Briens. The well is there still. Where the well was there is a hole there now, and there are a lot of bushes growing aroudn it. It is a very deep well. it is about fifteen yards in from the road.
    There is a gravel pathc leading into it. There are six steps going down to it.
