  2. St. Buadan's Bell.
    In the church at Bocan near Culdaff is preserved the bell of St. Buadan. It is eleven inches high, and it is made of bronze. This bell was made in the tenth century many people say and it is like St. Patrick's bell. There is a hole in each side to(?) the bell and it said to be made for improving the sound.
