In Ballinvalley there are many walls which he had built. In Cortown there is a cross and people do not know what it is really for. The writing is blotted off it so it is hard to know what it is for. Old people that there one day a priest was on the Loughcrew Hills. Cromwell and his followers came that way. When the priest saw him coming he went towards Cortown. They followed him, and when he came to the place where the cross now is they shot him. People say that is why the cross is there.
