“In a field belonging to Hogans of Gaulstown there is supposed to be hidden treasure guarded by a white bull with three heads.”
In a field belonging to Hogans of Gaulstown there is supposed to be hidden treasure guarded by a white bull with three heads. On a moon light night is the only night it is to be seen grazing with the animals. If any one happens to go into the field it runs to a corner where a large oak tree grows and it remains standing there until the person leaves the field. It is there where the treasure lies hidden.
