This is a small island about 3 rood of land and chiefly a barren rock situate in the middle of a lake about a mile from the shore and 14 miles to the south of Barons Court near Pettigoe. From the earliest account it has been devoted to devotional purposes and resorted to during the summer by at least 10,000 from all part of Ulster to do penance. The owner of this island turns this superstition to profitable account for he gets 6½d. ferry for each person."</text>
