  1. Hidden Treasure.
    Treasure is hidden in Tullamaine moat. The Danes are supposed to have placed it there. The people say that the Danes got it out of the castles long ago. The people in the townsland say they do not know what it was put there for. Mr. Hicky tried to get it and he was hunted by a strange animal like a greyhound. It is gold that is there. Gold was never found in my townsland nor gold was neer seen by eating certain food. Lights have never been seen there.
