    Three miles from this at the left hand side of the road there lies a graveyard.

    Three miles from this at the left hand side of the road there lies a graveyard. A man dreamt that there was money hid there. He found a pot of gold covered with a griddle and took out the gold and went to count it. When he looked again there was no gold but an empty pot. He put the pot back and covered it with the griddle and earth. He dreamt the next night that the gold would be in the pot in seven years time.
