- (continued from previous page)statue of Christ the King and the stations of the cross and a Shrine to St. Michael. People come to do rounds at this well from May until October.
Long ago people used to leave blessed pictures at the well but now they give money for the upkeep of it.
The prayers said there are the fifteen mystries of the Rosary, the Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the prayer to St. Michael and finally a half hour at the Church.
The blessed well at Killtumper is situated about three miles north of the village of Kilmihil. It is dedicated the King of the Sabbath. Those suffering from sore eyes were cured there. Those seeking a cure had to visit it on three successive Sundays either before sunrise or after sunset.- Collector
