- Gold.
A man named Hinch (Mrs. Larry Byrne's father) went to dig for gold in Killcarney "beyant" Hacketstown. He dreamt about the gold, + he + another man went to dig for it. They brought a little "tarrier" with them. There was a life to be lost in the gettin g of the money. they were to kill a cock or something. After digging for a long time they hit a flag + a big tall man started coming up out of the hole, + the little "tarrier" was near eating him. They threw the spades down + went home. Next morning, they went back to see could they get the money. There was no sign of where they dig, but the spades were there.
