    of the man who hid the Gold.
    This man and a servant boy were ploughing in the field.
    He told the servant boy to go to his house and bring him a crock of Gold which was in the room.
    When he brought it he tied a handkerchief across his eyes and made him walk across the river backwards and forwards until he buried the Treasure.
    Many efforts were made from time to find the Treasure but without any success.
