“There is a treasure in Mrs O'Reilly's field of Donagoran Co Meath and it is called the stuck.”
There is a treasure in Mrs O Reilly's field of Donagoran Co Meath, and it is called the Stuck. There is a fort in the field and there is a big stone on top of the fort. The treasure is hid under the fort. Once a man named Patrick Walsh was going home and it was about twelve o clock. when he was passing the Stuck he could hear horses galloping, and the lashing of whips all around him. He looked, and looked but he could see nothing, but he heard the terrible galloping. His hair stood on his head, and the sweat poured down his face.
