  2. Conor Sheridan
    Conor Sheridan met an old woman in far fields a long time ago where she was after milking her cows and she told him that she would have no butter in her churn.
    Conor told her that when she would go home to get a ball of wool and cut it in two halves and put it under the churn. She did so and she had plenty of butter ever after till she died.
