St Colmcille (from Kells) was jealous and one night came and stole one of the Crosses. As he was crossing the Blackwater Ciaran caught him, and hailed him. The socket of the Cross fell into the Blackwater.

He was buried in Kieran Churchyard and a nephew of narrator, in making the grave came across a stone with Ogham inscription. This stone was put as a headstone over the grave and is to be seen yet.
