  1. Gold is hidden is Rahcline in a hill in Geffroy's land. It is predicted that it will be descovered if ever there should be a war.
    A story is told that a crock of gold was hidden by the Danes in a churchyard in Cloontuskert. A man dreamt or was told about this crock of gold and the people say that a neighbour saw him digging for it and slew him. Some people say this man afterwards found the treasure, but it was not known.
