  1. In Thomastown there is a soldier seen on Easter sunday morning and the night saint Patrick is seen looking for his tooth in Kilfeacle. There is a shadow down the Bansha Road and it is said that a woman died there. Con Dwyer Kilfeacle told me there is sometimes seen the shadow of a woman on the road from Kilfeacle to Bansha. He saw it himself in the day time.
