Okay this is a lil freaky and wouldn't happen now but...
THEIR LAST SERVICE: PRIESTS AND PEOPLE PRAYING FOR THOSE SINKING IN THE QUICKSANDS. When anyone was caught in the quicksands Mont St. Michel, and it was impossible to rescue them, the people of the island, headed by the clergy, were wont to go to the ramparts and there pray for the living dead. Mont St. Michel, it should be noted, is a granite islet connected with the mainland by a causeway, and is in Mont St. Michel Bay, off the coast of Department Manche, France is high and steep and on its summit is a Benedictine monastery of between the eleventh and thirteenth centuries. It surrounded by ramparts with towers. It is noted both for its quicksands and for its extraordinarily rapid tides.
