  2. A Hidden Treasure

    Share Share Post
    I know where there is a hidden treasure. It is buried under an elder tree in a fence beside Derry Castle It is unknown who placed it there, but I suppose some early inhabitant of the Castle placed it there in time of trouble. It consists of a crock of gold, and no attempt was ever made to unearth it.
