    In the parish of Walshestwon there was a man who stopped going to Mass. While Mass was being said on Sunday he would get up and shave. He was shaving as usual one Sunday when the Devil appeared to him. He told him to cut his throat.
    Fortunately the man did not his advice. On the contrary he always attended Mass after that.
