- (continued from previous page)The RoseThere is a lake on the road to Oldcastle called Knocklough. Any person who wants to get cured has to get somebody to lift some of the water for him. If it is a man that gets the Rose a girl has to lift the water and vice versa. As soon as the water is lifted the Rose will be cured. It is said that a Saint left the cure in the lake. This cure never fails.
Pain in the BackThere was a man named Jim Brady Killua who had the cure of the pain in the back. The person who had the pain had to go to him three times. He walked on the person's back each time. The person is cured the third time.
