- Many years ago there were men digging in a bog. They were digging until they were three feet down in the ground.
After a while they got a box of gold and were going away, one of the men said he saw a ghost. The men said they could see nothing.
When they were gone a long way the came to a wall, and the man that said he had seen the ghost died by the wall.
The bog is about seven miles from us. We cut turf in that bog.
