    When St. Molua of Kyle died, the people got a coffin...

    When St. Molua of Kyle died, the people got a coffin and were taking him to Kyle. When they reached the graveyard a crowd of people met them and wanted to take the coffin. The other people would not give it to them so they started to fight. When they were finished fighting there were two coffins on the road and one crowd of people took one coffin to Kildare and the others took the other to Kyle and it is not known where he is buried.
