    (continued from previous page)
    There is a place near Lissardmore Lake where the priest said Mass. The altar is made of scraws and stones. Some man went to hunt the priest. The Chalice went dropping blood. The blood is to be seen on the stone yet.
    The priest told the man to go home and that on that day week he would not be able to do much. On that day week he was buried. His people turned Catholics.
