    Share Share Post
    Near J. Callaghan's Ardrum there was supposed to be buried with Sir George Colthurs his horse, gun dog and a can of gold. He was buried with the gold to guard it.
    Several men dug around the place (whres) where the gold was supposed to be buried but none of them never found it.
