  1. This treasure is supposed to be hidden not far from the left bank of Ballyduff stream about half a mile to the North of the village of Ballyduff, Co. Waterford.
    It was hidden there by a robber who was afterwards hanged in Cork jail.
    The Parish Priest's servant man dreamt three nights in succession of a certain place in the bank where the gold was hidden.
    The Treasure consists of gold and silver. Buried treasures have not been discovered in my district.
