  1. An old man used to live out in Glenribbon and he had a lot of money. Several attempts were made to steal it but he hid it under the ground. People said he was a magician and that he made water gush out from the sides of the cave. If anyone tried to get his money, the whole place was flooded. There is a ledge in the wall where he used to sleep.
