   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   Once a woman had a son a priest and he told her that every Mass she would be present at, to put a stone in a box. At the end of the year she opened the box and only found one stone in it. That woman saw by that she only heard one Mass properly. She lived in Comeragh but I don't know what her name was.
   Here is another : A man was going to mass one Sunday morning and he met a priest at Kilrossanty School. The man was carrying a bag on his back. The priest asked him what he had in the bag. He said "Potatoes" and the priest asked him if he prayed for every person who gave him alms. The man said "Some I do and some I don't". The priest asked him if he would spill the potatoes out on the road. The man did so and all the people he prayed for who gave him alms separated from those he did not.
   The priest said "Those are all you prayed for and there are three times as much you did not pray for". That priest's name was Fr. Tracey and he was a priest that was in Kilrossanty in days gone by.
