    and St. Lachteen, the patron saint of Donoughmore were to walk on their knees until they met and the meeting place would be the boundary between the two parishes. They met at Ard na n-Aingeal and they had a fight and St Olan said that every mad dog would go to Donoughmore and St Lachteen said that Aghabullogue would never be without the bed of a robber.
    St Olan was buried in Aghabullogue graveyard and a tombstone erected over him with his name written in Ogham on it.
