  1. Folklore about the Penal Times
    Mary Kiernan got this from an old lady names Mary Anne MIggin. She is 77 years of age.
    She told me that her father was out in the penal times (or the last of the penal times) in Ireland. She heard of a mass path which leads from a little style made of stone on the roadside beside Conroys of Coolronan.
    It leads from that style to Smyth's Wood where (she thinks) there used to be a mass said.
