- Story
Two men went into Lios a Liam about twelve o'clock to dig for gold one night. They heard it from a man on the road that it was buried there. They had just dug under a bush when one of the spades struck something hard and when they they took up what they thought was a rock, what was it but a the crock of gold. They had not it one minute in their hands when one of them got blind and the other man's mouth went back to his ears and the gold fell into the hole again and closed up again.
