    of a foals skin of gold in Ballyvaskin hill.

    Rev. Fr. Patrick McGuane prayed in the Kilfarboy graveyard and foretold that lightning would never do any harm to the parish. He also foretold the headless horses or the motor cars and the telegraph or the talking in the wottle. All the priests words came true. Fr. McGuane is supposed to be a saint. He is laid to rest in the Miltown Church.
