    A man named Boyle at Blackstaff also made predictions. Some are remembered. Steele was the landlord and was also a proselytiser.
    "Rachaidh boithre toit tré Calgach (townland)
    Is rachaidh tríd tinnleán Steele - le."
    "There will be a fair in every field."
    The railway now runs through the place where Steele's house stood.
