- About twelve miles from Nenagh stands a house known as "Clonolohan House" People bought this house in 1918 and would have left it only it was such a nice place.
Each night noises were heard, footsteps going up and down the stairs, and people wiping their feet outside the door.
One one occasion as the family sat in the kitchen, noises were heard in the upper rooms, and then suddenly a big crash of delph and a big thud on a table.
They got terribly frightened, and they got a mass said, and nothing was ever heard since.
