- I know a spot about half a mile from here in Thomas Bowes field where there is said to be gold hidden under four pine trees. It is in a little grove between two ditches. One night a few men went to try to get it, and as they began to dig for it a bull chased them. No one ever since tried to get it, and it is not known who hid it there.
John Walsh Turkstown - In Piltown in a field near the Rathmore road there is gold hidden. The field belongs to Tommy Shea artlone Three men started to seek the hidden treasure. They were digging and digging, and did not mind any thing. At last they heard the roaring coming along. They did not mind it at first. Then it came very near and they saw it was a bull. They fled in terror the bull following them.
