  2. Long ago a man named John Whip was sitting on the wall of the graveyard in Ballintemple. Suddenly a man appeared beside him and said, "They buried me in the wrong graveyard, and how can I rest here in peace. They have all ready there for me, and I am going back to Kilpatrick where I can rest in peace." Whip got down on his feet and ran home for his life.
