- Sir Lucas Dillon lived in Trimlestown Castle a few miles from Trim. The day of his marriage he was killed, along with his wife in Newtown churchyard a half mile from Trim.
They were buried and a tomb was erected over their graves. On one side of the tomb is a picture of the marriage and on the top is a picture of him dead and his wife lying beside him. Their are a lot of pins on the tomb and if you put a pin on it for nine mornings you will be cured of any warts you have on your body.- Collector
