- There is a lake on my father's land called Lough Nacarhan. There is supposed to be a crock of gold hidden in this lake. It is not known who put the gold there, but it is said that there is a water horse guarding it.
One day about twenty years ago Ned McGrath Tullybeg saw an animal swimming on the lake and about four years ago I saw a very large animal swimming in the lake.
