- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)crossing the moor near Doon Rock, the stick which he had lost in Rome rose out of the bog in front of him and fell down into the bog. Father O'Friel, as he now was, pulled the stick out of the moss and immediately out of the hole sprang water. The priest blessed the water and from that day forth it is known as "Doon Well." There are some remarkable feature connected with this water, it cannot be boiled, those who are ailing and go to the well believing that they will be cured are cured. Also it is said that if the water from the well is given to a sick person, he too can be cured. No matter how many people gather at this well at one time the water never goes low, it always remains at the same level. If a person carries a little of the clay from this district with him he will never have an accident or come to a tragic end. The clay is fine and white like cigarette ash, but it must be given by one of the O'Friel family, otherwise, it has no protective qualities nor does it change in colour. People visit this holy well at all times of the year.
