  1. (continued from previous page)
    heard a voice saying: 'Behold Agnes Behold!' and at that moment she slipped and fell into the well. And it is believed that she was a saint. There is a rosary said for every three rounds that are payed, and nine rounds that are payed for every visit a person pays. There are special days for paying rounds, the day after Saint Patrick's day, and the twenty-ninth of December. And when a round is paid the people always say three 'Hail Marys' in honour of saint Agnes.
