  1. In a field here gold is supposed to have been hidden by the owners some years ago.
    Two men have already dug the field in an attempt to get it but have been unsuccessful.
    There is now a tradition in the neighbourhood that the gold is still there but that a life will have to be lost before it is recovered.
