    As well he said that the water in St. Brigid's Well, would be red, if he was dead; or faintly red if only wounded. Off he went northwards immediately.
    On the following day McGarrigle kept a look out. He saw a cloud passing down and on the next day as directed, he went to St. Brigid's well and the water was pure red. This story is told by
    Pat White, Kliffoney, 60 years.
