    The Penal Times
    The fact of a Cross, Candlestick, and Bell being found in the Sheephouse quarry about 35 or 40 years ago by John Farrell, quarryman, makes people believe that Mass must have been said in some of the places in the Sheephouse district already mentioned.
    Peggy McGuiness (Sgoláire)
    Got from John Farrell (aged 47) who found the Cross etc.
    Sheephouse, Drogheda
