  1. (continued from previous page)
    "I do now want to stay out" said the little boy told them, "because all the crows are gathered in the castle". The farmer went out and found the castle filled with crows.
    Another evening as he was passing through Co Sligo he heard the people of Kilglass shouting to him he prayed that a person from Kilglass would never again become a priest and never since was a person from Kilglass ordained.
    Soon after this they sent him away to become a priest.
