    From these graves, a subterranean passage can be traced in a southerly direction, and it is told locally that men, working in General Clifford's land, in the adjoining townland of Carn, came upon a tunnel, which is probably a continuation of the passage above mentioned.
    Presently, cattle graze upon the place, and much of its ancient and peculiar appearance is being gradually effaced.
    The treasures, referred to in the following pages, are supposed to lie underneath the waters of this peaceful lake.
