  1. An Old Story (continued)

    My house is a quarter of a mile west of Rehins school, and 400 yards north of it there lies a field containing 30 acres of land.

    (continued from previous page)
    The man got a shock when he heard money rattling, and he made up his mind to look down. There must have been bad luck at him because he fell flat on the grass, and when he got up the hole had disappeared. Then the old people said that there was a Ciste in that field, but it has never been found.
