    Calmon, Ballysheil, Cloghan, Offaly. His body was buried under a flat stone in front of the house which is now occupied by Mrs Carrol, Ballysheil, Cloghan, Offaly. It is also said that anyone who leaves medals, money or anything else on this stone will be cured from any complaint they are suffering from.
    The Friars in Killourney escaped but the monastery was burnt.
