    Mickey cut a piece off her shirt with his scythe, and during the rest of his lifetime he could not put any edge on a scythe and that finished the mowing for the rest of his life.

  2. Buried Treasure

    Share Share Post
    Three men dreamt that gold was to be found near a little stream running between Ballyine and Ballinaberna. They went one night to search for it. They dug a large hole where they dreamt the treasure was hidden. When they went a certain distance they met a large flag.
    Two of them lifted the flag and the other man was going under it when suddenly a black dog appeared and barked them. They ran home and never looked for the treasure again. The hole was to be seen afterwards until it was closed up.
