There was an old woman living in Newbawn and she had a son in Kilbarney and he come home to her one day and sez he, "Mother I'm tired dreaming about sixty soverns that's under the leg of the bed."
"Tut you fool", sez she. "They weren't sixty soverns in the house this hundred years."
He said he'd dig it up, but she would not agree with him, she said, "You tare up the flure!"
He waited until she went some where. Then he pulled out the bed, and dug up the floor, and found the money under a slate in the very place he dreamt about.- Collector
