    Flannel is blessed on St Flannan's day ,and is used for pains on the bones, a stitch in the side, or a colic. Water from blessed wells is kept in several houses, and three drops of it are drunk in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost to take away pains especially in the stomach. The water from St Senan's well is given to horses to take away worms ,and is also shaken in the garden to kill insects.
    Easter water is brought home on Easter Saturday, and is given to cattle when they get sick. Some people shake it in the gardens. People in this parish get three drops of it to drink when they are ill.
