TlAim|-eAc puAU, two stones in the townland of
Curraun, in the parish of St. MulHns, barony
of Bantry, and coimty of Wexford. According
to tradition, St. Moling metamorphosed
the wife of the Gobán Saer and her companion
into these stones. A blacksmith who lives in
the vicinity states that he made three small
grooves in the larger of these stones, with a
view to having it blasted; but that when
he was about to apply the powder he
saw di'ops of blood oozing from the holes,
which convinced him that TlAiTni-eAC, the
Gobán's wife, was still Hving, and her blood
circulating, under the appearance of a rude
rock.
