  1. Béaloideas - A Hidden Treasure

    Share Share Post
    Some time ago there lived an old man and his wife in the townland of Ballyline not far from where I live. They had no children and they had a great lot of money. They did not wish that anyone belonging to them would have the money. as they planned to hide it. The house in which they lived was in a very desolate place.
