  1. Hidden Treasure

    Share Share Post
    It is said that there is gold hidden down at Mullagh Lake. It is buried down in the earth under a little bush.
    Some friends of mine have made attempts to get it, but have failed.
    It is said that ponies come up out of the Lake, to guard the gold every night.
