- I have never heard of any treasure being hidden or found in the district in which I live but I live beside Emy lake, and there is a small island out in the middle of it.It was supposed that there was a house on this island at one time and that there was treasure buried in it.A couple of years ago Mr Shane Leslie, son of Sir John Leslie of Glaslough Demesne, Co Monaghan, went out to the Island in a boat to see if he could find anything. he commenced digging, but he only unearthed old bones and old pieces of wood, he took them away with him, I never heard anything more about them since. The Island is inundated except for a few months in the summer.(continues on next page)
