  2. This story was told by Paddy Campbell, Hilltown, Ardara 70 yrs to his daughter Annie Campbell, Tullymore, aged 42 yrs. She told it to her daughter Theresa Higgins.
    (3) One time there was a woman who went down to Inniskeel Island to travel the station. When she was out on the Island a young student came to her and said he would help her to travel the station. He then asked her what prayers were to be said. She told him the prayers and the both travelled the station. When they had the station travelled the woman left the Island and waited for the man to come ashore but he did not come. Then she thought the student was St. Conell.
