- (continued from previous page)sister walking home cured and ever since people believed that, that well had cures. Tuesdays and Fridays people visit this well for cures. They bring a piece of clay with them and when they are cured they leave it back again. The well is surrounded by a square wall and trees. There is a bed beside the well on which Saint Sorney slept. People who visit Saint Colmans well bring hairpins and pins and little stones and place them on his grave and they make the sign of the cross three times.James St George, Kilcolgan Lodge,
