    of the farm before Patrick Duffy, dremt of the pot of gold three times and this is the way he thought he could get it. he would have to go there when the priest would be at the consecration of the Mass and bring a bottle of holy water with him and throw the holy water at the cat. He could get the gold then but someone in the house would die. He would not have anything to do with it. The gold is believed to be still there.
