    situated, when a woman took water out of it for household use, and the next morning, the well was gone, and had sprung up again three miles away at Glamorstown.
    In Horseleap there are two graveyards, one near the Protestant church and one at the Catholic church. Near the gate of the old graveyard, there are the remains of an old house, and it is said that in this house there is a man buried under the hearthstone. This old graveyard is still used by the people.
