    In Carron there lived a woman whose butter was taken from her. There lived in the parish a man who could bring it back. She sent for him and he came and he put the coulter of the plough into the fire and when it was red the woman who had the butter came running to the door with it.

  2. There was once a woman living in Carron. She used to give butter to a priest. One morning the priest was waiting for the butter. He sent his servant to the woman she was making the churn. The boy saw the hand of her dead husband in the churn, he went home and told the priest. The priest said he would take no more butter from her.
