    The Old Graveyards.
    2. There are three graveyards in my parish. One in Killoughy, another in Raleen and another in Mount Bolus. The Church is in Mount Bolus still. The other two is knocked down and the ruins are there still.
    The are all level. There are one old tomb. It was made in 1832. The crosses are made of stone. Some of them are square and more shaped like a cross. The people are still buried in these old graveyards. There are some trees in them.
