  1. A story of Treasure
    Mostly in all the districts there are treasures in hiding. There is a gold in Ballyluck. It is in a field belonging to us. It is in a brake a very long field. I know it well and many people have tried to get the treasure but each time they would meet with accident and they would have to go away and each time that they would come back the flag would be back in its right again.
