   the well. She took the moss and washed her eyes with it, and they were cured.

   Nobody uses the water of this well for household purposes, as it is commonly believed that it cannot be boiled. It is said that one dry summer, a long time ago, a woman living near the well took some water from it, for household use, as none other was obtainable, convenient to her. She put it on the fire to boil, but after some time, she found that it was not boiling. She tested it with her hand and, to her great surprise found that it was just as cold as when taken out of the well. Being very frightened at this, she put the water aside. That night she heard a noise outside her house. A voice spoke to her, telling her that the water in the well was blessed, and that she was not to abuse it, and that unless she put the water back a great calamity would befall her.

   When families in the locality had disputed in olden times, all settlement of them was postponed until Pattern day at Barrigone well, when the issues were decided in faction fights.
