  1. Biddy Early lived in Clare she was supposed to have knowledge of the future. I heard a story about a man named Denis Fenton from whom money had been stolen.
    He went to her and as he was going in he met her and she said "good day Mr Fenton"
    He inquired from he if she had any knowledge of the money but she told him he was late.
    She said the money was hidden in an old house for a couple of days but was spent.
