“Many years ago in the parish of Glenville and in a place called Doone a very remarkable thing happened to a a blessed well.”
Many years ago in the parish of Glenville and in a place called Doone a very remarkable thing happened to a blessed well. The holy well was called St. John's Well.
People used to come in thousands on St. John's Eve to visit it and to pray there. It was the custom for people paying rounds at well to leave alms. It seems that one day a thief came to the well and having washed his clothes in water of the well went away and took with him the alms left by the people. Next morning some people living near saw that the well was dry. When they investigated further they found that the holy well had sprung up in a graveyard nearby. More people than ever came afterwards to pay rounds at well and many are known to be cured there and as a thanksgiving many of them brought statues to the well. The above well is situated in the middle of a graveyard called Doone, which is a mile distant from Glenville.- Bailitheoir

- When we get up in the morning
We are not sure to spend the day;
For the death is at the door,
To snatch our lives away.
I often heard my grandmother R.I.P quoting above lines.
