It is said that during the penal times that a priest while saying Mass in the Chapel at Cashelard about four miles outside Ballyshannon on the Donegal road was put to death at the pillar of the gate at the entrance to the Chapel. On the grassy place where the priest fell dead it is said that grass never grows there.
