    The Abbey of Holycross.
    Four miles south west of Thurles on the right bank of the river SUir stands the ruins of the once famous abbey or monastery of Holycross.
    About the middle of the 12th century two hermits occupied a cell in the immediate vicinity and while one of these holy men was engaged in prayer he was attacked by four robbers who believing that the poor hermits had an amount of money demanded that he should hand over to them his treasure. the poor hermit assured them that they possessed no wealth but the robbers demanded that he shows them some proof of his power with God "make that big tree bend down its top so as to tough the earth" said they. The hermit remonstrated with them but they swore that if the miracle was not performed the hermit would be killed. Scarcely had the words been said when the tree bent towards the earth threatening to crush the robbers beneath, who in order to save themselves from destruction put up their hand and clutched the branches.

In a short time after Donald O'Bried arrived on the scene and ordered the bodies to be cut down leaving the eight hands (attacled) attached to the tree. This Donald O'Brien was a King of Munster and son of Murtough. Some years before the above event happened this Murtough received the gift of a piece of the True Cross from Pope Pacchal II. He decided to found a monastery in which to place the Holy Relic. But before he could carry out his purpose he died and it was left to his son Donald to found the monastery.
