- (continued from previous page)Sunday without Palm to get it Blessed so they thought it no harm to go into the demense to get some. On their way to mass they met one of the owners of the place who enquired of them where they got the Palm knowing that they would be punished for trespassing on the grounds they said they had it growing in their own District, The Black Road. He said he would go there to find out.
They went to the priest and told him the story. He foretold that the day would come when there would (come) be grass growing in the place of his castle and when his demense would be without a single Palm tree. This has come to pass because at the present time there is not a stone upon a stone in the place where the castle once stood. - (continued from previous page)there was only about two basinfuls gone. It was God that increased their store because they fed the poor.
