I got this from Bridget O' Dwyer.Some years ago there was a man named Kielly in Low Island Ballynacally who used visit Biddy Early whenever his stock or friends used be ill, as it was common belief that by her witchcraft she could tell whether health would be restored on them or not. On one occasion when cattle were ill he went to Biddy, and she said, Do you remember last night when all the plates in the dresser clattered. Yes he said, I got up to hunt the cat as I thought it was the cat prowling about. No indeed, "is mise a tí ann" said she. Now you can go home and your cattle won't die this time, said Biddy,
