  1. (no title) (continued)

    In days gone by, in Lower Reenmeen, there was a man seen with a crock of gold.

    (continued from previous page)
    buried the crock of gold.
    By this time the English were close to him. He could go no further with-out being seen, and he did not what that.
    A man named Flo Sullivan made several attempts to get it, but he failed.
    The treasure is a crock of gold.
    They say, the value of it is about a thousand pounds.
