    There was a lake formerly in Mount Scott and in Ireland there in. In which there was a castle owned by O'Brien. The Danes invaded the castle to rob it. The Irish chieftains defended the castle and terrible battle followed. The Irish routed the Danes and sunk their vessel. It is believed that the vessel and gold are buried around the castle.
