- In Newberry Graveyard in the parrish of Glantane, Mallow, in Father Kelleher's grave. Many people come and pay rewards at this grave during the year to [?] and [?] request.
The first person who ever paid rounds to this priests' grave was a woman from Kerry who had a crippled son. She had a dream that if she visited a certain priest's grave in a certain place and prayed there, her son would be cured. She rose up and after inquiring her way all along from the people [?] came to Fr. Kelleher's grave in Newberry. Tradition says her request was granted.
