  1. Hidden Treasure

    Share Share Post
    Long ago a man lived somewhere around Gleann. He dreamt three nights that there were two skillets of gold burried between the two roads leading into the bog. He dug for them and got one and was taking up the second one when he looked around him and it disappeared when he looked away. If the exact spot is dug, an not to have the person who is digging look around him he is supposed to get the other skillet.
