  2. About one hundred and fifty years ago an old John Trant and his two brothers Tom and Maurice, my Grandmother's three uncles, were digging potatoes in a field owned by an OBrien of Lionearla called the "Kiln Field". They discovered a pot. They went in to their dinner and they did not let any one know about it. When they came back to examine the pot it had disappeared.
