    Very many years ago a crowd of men were drinking in "Mullinavat". There was a bet for the man that would go up to Kilbeacon church and bring down a skull. One man offered to go. While he was gone two or three of them went behind him and every skull he would catch he would hear a voice saying "leave that there, that's mine"
