    One day some years ago about 1900 a girl was walking through Navan looking for a job. A priest came up to her and asked her why she was so worried looking. She told him so and he guided her to a house. On arriving there the lady took her in. When they were seated at the fire the lady asked her who guided her there she said a priest, and looking at the photograph she said "O! that is the very priest. The woman said that could not be the priest because he was dead.
