His prayer protected the house and it was saved from the fever. All through life Raftery was given to argument. He visited a poet named Burke in the Loughrea district. He addressed the poet as follows:

Atá romhath annseo ar bóthar na gCaippí"

Núair a bhímse ag bórd ag ól mo gloinne,
Bíonn tusa id sháil ag cúil an deathaigh"
