    There is supposed to be a crock of gold to be found in Mullannalog. There is a fort on top of this hill and, it's in this fort that the treasure is supposed to be hidden. Some man dug for it and was chased by some animal. The hole is visible to this day.

    There is a fort in Mullabrian and it is surrounded with bushes. There is an entrance through which the people go out and, in. The fairies sang very nice sweet music here and every body were listening to them whenever they are going by.
