  1. There are a great many blessed wells in this county. There is a beautiful blessed well in Ballycoree near Ennis and rounds are performed there on 18th of March it is called St Joseph's well. There is another one on our land called St Erk's well. There is one also in our Parish called St John's well. Many people went in there with crutches and walked home. There is St Michael's well in Doora and one in Kilmihill. The one in Doora is for sore eyes.
