  2. Story
    About one and a half miles from Drumconrath there lives an old woman, this woman is supposed to be a witch. She owns a crock of gold but still she pretends she is poor. No matter what questions one would ask her she could answer it and if you were puzzled in a sum she could tell you the answer first glance at it .
