- (continued from previous page)Churchyard in Comblin there was a flag store laid on the ground. A crock of gold is supposed to be buried under it. Three men went one time to dig up the treasure but when they had dug down a certain distance in the ground they fell dead.
There are three hawthorn trees. It is believed three is a crock of gold under each tree. Three men went one time to dig the treasure two died and only one came back no one has looked for the treasure since.Written by:Philomena Gaffney,
