- Buried Gold
When a highwayman used to be hiding his gold long ago he used to make one of his gang swear an oath that he would mind the gold "dead and alive". The highwayman used then shoot him and his ghost would let no one get the gold.
Often when a person found a vessel full of gold the gold was in the form of snail shells. If the vessel full of snail shells was taken home it would take its own form of gold at 12 o'clock that night. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
