  1. Once when a man going from Blarney to Cork with a load of potatoes.
    He left Blarney at eleven o Clock, he had two lanterns one one each side of the car.
    So he just arrived at Mathey at twelve o Clock, and with the light of the lanterns he saw a priest at the right hand side him who stopped and told him to come in to Mass.
    He tied the horse to the gate and he followed the priest in to mass.
    When he went inside the door of the chapel he saw a number of people who had beed dead for several years. He also saw the priest saying Mass on the altar.
