  2. In Mr. Butler's field near Tullow, Sacred vessels are hidden. Ther was a chapel there in olden times, but the priests were hunted out of it. The ruins of the chapel are there. Sounds are heard when anybody walks. It is said that a priest gave money to a man to dig for the vessels, but he dug for a week and got nothing. The priest told him if he found them not to touch them, but to go back for himself.
