    then and more say it is up at Mrs Reillys of Paristown, Cromwell hanged no priest on "the hangman's tree". The priest that was in Ballinlough was hidden along with O Reilly in the castle and all the gold Communion cups and the golden vessels belonging to the altar and his vestments and all the gold were supposed to be hidden in a room conected underground with a shore running out to the lake. Sir Hugh Nugent was very anxious to open it, it is lately that shore was discovered.
