  1. (continued from previous page)
    A priest in this parish whose name was Father Bourke, had a great falling out with a farmer in the parish. The farmer swore that he would shoot the priest, in the first place that he would meet him .So they met on the road some time afterwards. The priest used his power and the man with all his vengeance never knew the priest crossed him until someone asked him "Why did he not strike the priest" and it was then he said "Where is he?"
