  2. A True Story

    Share Share Post
    Long ago there lived a woman in Killineer. This woman was a protestant. One day there came a priest to her house. He was on the run. She hid him in a secret room until danger was past. When he was going he said that there never would be bad sickness on the hill of Killineer. His words were true so far.
