- Once there lived in Kilmacow two little children and every morning after school they used to go around the fields picking flowers. One evening they met a little man dressed in green and he asked them questions in Catechism. He touched one of them. When they went home they told their sad story to their mother and father. An hour later the one that he touched died.
