  1. (continued from previous page)
    got angry and he left it. He cursed the place that it would never be without a rogue or robber.
    Then he went to Mullinakill and he lived in a cave up on the hill. His feet were sore and he used to come down to the well every day to wash his feet. A woman lived near by and she had three cows and they used to drink the water.
    They had a wounderful flow of milk and every cow had as much milk as three. One day the woman saw him washing his feet in the Well and she gave out to him. He left and went to Carlow and he built a big Church and he died there
    There is a Pattern held in Mullinakill in honour of him
    When he was leaving Mullinakill he cursed it that it would never be without an amadán or an óinseac.
