    Youghalarra holds another old graveyard, with very old tombstones in it. There is a vault in this graveyard belonging to a Protestant family.
    There is another graveyard in Castletown, beyond Portroe, and there is a big vault in it, with a steel door to close it. This vault belonged to a Protestant family and when the last of the family was dead, the key which locked and opened the door, had to be thrown into the middle of the Shannon.
    The following is one of the tombstones over Michael Mc Carley grave in the Old Abbey.
    Remember man as you pass by
    That fatal death is drawing nigh,
    Renounce this world and all its pride,
    And pray to God to be your guide.
