    It is also said that in an old wood in Coolhill a woman committed suicide

    It is also said that in an old wood in Coolhill a woman committed suicide and she was buried in this old wood and she appeared to many people. It so happened that the priest was passing one night coming from a sick call and she appeared to him, so he took out the Blessed Sacrament and she disappeared and was never seen after that.
