“There is a treasure hidden in Kenehan.”
There is a treasure hidden in Kenehan. It is supposed to be hidden under a tree. It is guarded by a pig. It has to be dreamt about by one man. He has to get another man to go with him. They have to go at midnight to the place and dig for the pot of gold. If they let out the pig all is lost. One man dreamt of it and two men went and it is never known whether they found it or not but it is said that one of the men died soon after.
