  1. Composition - Hidden Treasure

    Composition.
    Hidden Treasure.
    There are lots of places where I have heard of hidden treasure. One of the places which I heard of from my father is in Mill Hill.
    It is in the big hollow on the top of the hill but I don't think anybody dug for it.
    Mill Hill is situated on the side of the Great Southern Railway between Batterstown Station and Dunboyne Station.
    I got this from my father, James Simpson aged 70, Batterstown, Co. Meath.
    17th November 1937.
