- Long ago there was a treasure supposed to have been hidden in a rath in Farranbrien. It was placed there by the Danes who were in Ireland. Two men went to dig it. They remained three weeks digging it. It was a crock of gold. The result was that one of them fell sick. The other person never tried to dig it after that. It is still in that place. Lights have been seen where the treasure is hidden. No other person ever tried to dig it again.
