- "About two fields away from Harristown House in Kinnegad was a holy well and people used to go to it and throw buttons in the well and hang pieces of red flannel on a tree beside the well.
"The man who was living in Harristown House did not want the people going over his land to the well so he got the well filled in.
"About two days after the water of the well spouted up at the hall door of the house.
"The man had to get men to dig ditches and drains to drain away the water.
"But the water did not stop spouting up until he opened up the well again and let the people go to it."- Collector
