Anybody could milk her for she was very quite. She never failed to fill the vessel of anyone who milked her. She seemed to be there to feed the poor & from the mercy of God. Of course 'the woman' had to come & brought a sieve to milk her in, She didnt & couldnt fill it & never gave milk after. She then disappeared from this part of the country Uncle Patch _ RIP often and often told me this story about the Glassnach
