Church of the Four Beautiful Ones
“St Fursey, Brendan of Birr, Conal and Bearchan are the 4 saints in question
The Church is 11-12C with modifications but their graves (and a 5th) are said to lie just outside the church behind the altar. There is also a Holy Well to which healings are attributed.”

Also ‘Teampall an Ceathrar Álainn’
The adjacent Well of the four beauties was the inspiration for Synge’s Well of the Saints -

TIMMY.
Did ever you hear tell of a place across a bit of the sea, where there is an island, and the grave of the four beautiful saints?
MARY DOUL.
I’ve heard people have walked round from the west and they speaking of that.
TIMMY.
[impressively.] — There’s a green ferny well, I’m told, behind of that place, and if you put a drop of the water out of it on the eyes of a blind man, you’ll make him see as well as any person is walking the world.
MARTIN DOUL.
[with excitement.] — Is that the truth, Timmy? I’m thinking you’re telling a lie.
TIMMY.
[gruffly.] — That’s the truth, Martin Doul, and you may believe it now, for you’re after believing a power of things weren’t as likely at all. ... ...

Madam, - In the Lawrence Collection there is a photograph of the Channel Squadron of the Royal Navy at anchor in Killary Harbour in the West of Ireland. I have researched this considerably and have concluded that it was on the morning of Sunday, October 8th 1899. I have examined the logs of some of the ships present and would like to explore the position a little more. If any of your readers have any information which could assist me I would be grateful if they would contact me at the address below, fax 01-6671080 - Yours, etc., BRENDAN WALSH, 34 Upper Baggot Street, Dublin 4. 21/06/2003 See - www.irishtimes.com/opinion/letters/royal-navy-ships-at-ki... Now, what extra information can we find? ... ...
