    Those who pretended they were anxious to see him a short while before, now entreated the priest to banish him, as everything he touched took fore. All their entreaties were of no avail. Father Coughlan left him there for the space of three days. At last the Parish priest prevailed on him to send back old Hiench. He consented, but not before all those present promised never again to molest a priest.
    Father Coughlan died soon afterwards. He suffered a great deal before he died.
