    In the town land of Togher in John Clarke's land, there is still a big stone that was blessed and old people went there to pray, mass was usually said before daylight in those times, then someone stole back to their home for to get ready food for the priest, he lived in caves in rocks or anyplace he got shelter, for the soldiers were always trying to run him down.
