- Wells6. There is a well in Tríanbán, ad when ST. Patrick was there he lost his bell and he could not find it. One day a man got the bell, and it kept ringing until it had him deaf, and he put the bell into the well again.7. There is another well in Cloonaglausha and when St. Patrick was passing he saw a man coming out from the well. He asked him for a drink and he refused him. The St. went to the well to get a drink, and he put a curse on that well that the water would not boil. It is often the people try to boil it and it would not boil for them.Birdie Hughes
