  1. Mass Rocks
    There are many mass rocks in this district. There is one in Massinass, Glasson, Kildaragh, Feymore and Cashel. One day long ago a priest was reading mass at the mass rock in Massinass and he was killed and his blood is to be seen on the rock from that day to this day. Another priest was killed at the mass rock in Glasson and his blood is to be seen on the stones yet.

    This was told to me by Ann Trearty, Kilmacloo, 75 years old.
