    About the year 1740 a number of priests on the run were passing through the Demesne and they had a lot of gold and silver. There were soldiers close behind them. A priest named Fr Duffy hid the gold and silver in a case in the Demesne so that the soldiers would not get it. It has been left there because the people thought the priests would curse them if they took it.
