  1. In the parish of Puckane there is a churchyard called Kilordiernan. Near this churchyard there is a lake, In this churchyard there are only Chatolics buried. Once upon a time there was a Protestant buried there and the people of the place let the corpse out upon the lake.
    Some time after there was a funeral there and a man who was at the funeral saw the head of a man rising above the water. It must have been the head of the man that was let out on the lake.
