  1. Near the town of Enniscorty there is an under-ground hall. This contains a very large table packed with gold. On the wall hang two loaded guns. On a stone chair sits a stately old soldier. If you enter the hall the soldier hands you one of the guns, with which you must fight him, and if you beat him you can have all the gold for yourself.
