    them all the gold and treasures of the people around that place in case it might fall into the hand of the soldiers.
    These they hid under the castle and from that day to this it has never been found by anyone.
    It is said that a number of people went there to try to dig it up, but when they did so a man on a white horse appeared there and drove them away.
