  1. Hidden Treasure

    Share Share Post
    There is a big stone near my house and it is said that a man by the name of Flynn who is living in Cordal dreamt that there was money under it. They came with hammers and sledges to break it, and they found nothing. A man who was living in Glountane dreamt that there was money in a certain place in Mullin in Bailey's lamb and a couple of men came to get it, and they were hunted a by a big black dog.
