“There are skulls of horses buried in the chapel in Cullenstown.”
(continued from previous page)an echo. I also heard tell of skulls being buried in arches of castles. You'd always notice the great echo would be in these places, well that's the cause of it.
- There is a field belonged to Roches in Shanoule and several people dreamt that money was buried in it.
There was an ould man living there by the name of Matty Neill and he dreamt 3 times that money was buried in a certain place in this field about twenty yards from the ditch.
One day after dinner, he allowed he go look for it. So he got a spade and a sprong and he went out to this spot and attacked to dig. He dug in four or five places anyway and he dug up a jar and 'twas full of something like whiskers - them big yakes you'd see on barristers - That was all he could make out of it If he happened on that "in" the night 'twould be money.
