- About nine miles from Kilmurry school in a village called Tibohine there is a hidden treasure. It is a bag of money. During the black and - Tan war.
One day a dog was scraping under a tree and he scraped up a bag of money. It was in a field belonging to a man named Mr. Hanley. This man got the money and he opened the bag. It was filled with five pound notes but they were no good because they were rotten.
