    the water on their sores. The people who live beside the well are called Gallagher, and they take care of the well.
    Some people leave money on a flag at the well, and it is for the Gallaghers. Around the well there are many old crutches and sticks, left by the people who got cured there, and went away without these.
    Nobody ever tried to destroy the well.
    There are no fish in the well.
    People go to Doon well on St Swithin's day, St Patricks day, and Easter Sunday.
    They very often go on any week day, but usually on a Saturday or a Sunday.
