    death The priest found the bell and a few weeks years ago a new church was built in the parish of Colmcille and this bell was placed in it. There is a graveyard around the monastery and people still bury there. The corps has to be taken by boat across the lake to the Island. In the time of Saint Colmcille there was a large flagstone on which the corps was placed and the stone floated across itself to the Island.
