- A very rich man lived in Holywell by the name of Jack Kenny. The priest came to anoint him as some one told him he was dying. When he came to the house Jack met him at the door in good health. "Who told you I was dying" says the man. There was a picture of his mother in the hall who was dead twenty years. It was that woman says the priest. The priest heard his confession and when the priest went the man died.
