    There is a blessed well in Kildare and it is called Father Moore's Well.

    There is a blessed well in Kildare and it is called Father Moore's Well. It has cured a good many people. You have to pay three visits and the third visit you have to leave a beads or prayer-book or something at the well. The stations of the cross are made at each visit. It will cure anything if you believe in it.
