- During the Penal times there were three young Monks in Inchicronan and the English soldiers were in Ennis and the Monks were in Ennis too and one of the Monks was very old and they tied the two young Monks to the shaft of a horse and car and dragged them along the road to Crusheen. They did nothing to the old Monk and he came to Inchicronan and said Mass there and a lot of people went to Mass and Holy Communion. The Monk died after wards and he is buried in Inchicronan.
