    they see the maid the said, "No sign of her mam".
    When Peggy came to the rock, and before she had any time to say anything the rock rolled over and killed.
    This maid went off quickly. She got tired and she sat upon a rock, which is situated in Crannagh. Just then a breeze of wind came. The girl was quick enough to leap from the rock. The money was taken down under the rock and buried there.
    Many people tried to turn the rock but it was all in vain. There to this day, the money is supposed to have remained.
