  1. Hidden Treasure

    Share Share Post
    Once upon a time there was a hidden treasure in Ireland. About fifteen miles outside Dublin there was an Inn, and in it were three men who were talking about hidden treasure. They had a map which showed them where there was a hidden treasure.
    They decided to go and get it and on of them was given the map to mind. They were to meet early next morning at the spot where the treasure was hidden. Next morning they were all there with picks and shovels.
