    The Holy Well in Moyne.
    There is a holy well in Moyne, a village in the Parish of Hacketstown. It is on the side of the road. It is called st Columcilles well. A girl named Mary Cullen and a girl named Berney were coming home after shopping in Moyne. Mary Cullen was suffering from a sore neck. They were talking about the well and the girl said "why don't you wash your neck with the water"; and she did so and she was cured.
