- There is a fort near Tim Lynch's. A man named Michael Buckley dreamt that there was Gold in a little hill in the middle of the fort. So he got a spade and shovel, and (got) he went up to dig for the Gold. He had a little terrier with him and when he had one foot dug a little mouse ran out and the dog killed him.

It is said that the terrier is minding the money now instead of the mices.
