Hidden Treasure
There is a pot of gold hidden between two forts between Rover and H
Greaghnaleva in the district of Arigna.
It was placed there by the Danes. It is guarded by a greyhound. There were never any attempts made to unearth it. If a person tried to unearth it he had to start when the first person was going to Mass on Sunday. He had to have it found when the first person was coming back. If he had not it unearthed some of the two (the unearthed or the first person back from the Mass) would die.
