  1. (continued from previous page)
    In the Cemetery there is a stone lying down with the following poem on it:-

    Stop, I pray as you pass
    As you are now, so once was I
    As I am now, so you shall be,
    Prepare yourself, and pray for me.

    Above that is:-
    " Here lies Michael McEvoy, and his posterity, who died the 2nd day of June 1920 "
    There is the top of a Celtic cross lying in the grass.
    The outline of the cemetery is round in shape.
