    During a recent thunderstorm a family in Bruree got very frightened. The woman of the house sent her daughter up stairs for a picture of St Anthony. The girl was so frightened that she never looked at the picture but placed it on the window. They prayed to St. Antony to spare them through the night. In the morning the woman went to remove the picture off the window and found to her surprise an enlarged Photo of Mr. De Valera.
