  1. (continued from previous page)
    two lovely greyhounds and they singing "Paddy I hardly knew you" and the Priest knew at once it was the devil and he said to the driver gallop the pony and when they landed at the house the Priest had just time to give the woman Holy Communion when she died.
    I heard from my father that a bell used to be heard by the Dolans of Walshestown every night from the field the Mass Rock is in and they had to get the Priest to bless the rock and it was never heard since.
