    This woman, though she had no cows of her own, was known by the neighbours to have plenty of butter at this time so they all came to the conclusion that she was exercising some evil art by which she could take the farmer's butter.
    After this the farmer had his place and stock blessed and consecrated by the local friars and soon the butter came back as usual.
