   We often hear the story of "Tobar na Molt" - the baptismal place of St. Brendan. During his baptismal a "fair drop" descended from Heaven, and served as the matter of the Sacrament. Three sheep, or in Irish "muilt" from which the place got its name emerged from the well. Ever since pilgrimages are being made to this well, and the blind, the lame, and the infirm are often miraculously cured.
