   There is another well in a field in Ballyverogue belonging to my uncle, Michael Walsh and it is believed to be blessed. The name of the priest that blessed it was Canon O'Sullivan who was CC. in Ballykelly at the time and he is dead now. This well went dry one year and when the priest blessed it, it never went dry since. This well is in a small field a short distance from my uncle's house and it lay under the shadow of a big tree. There are three steps going down to the well.
