    In Castlebridge County Wexford there is a Martyr in the Church.
    Long ago there was a man and his son living in a house by themselves, The boys' father was a robber, he tried to destroy the Blessed Eucharist, One of his sons tried to save it, but it was found, and the boys' father put him to death. He was embalmed in the church in a glass case, and the wound is to be seen in his forehead.
