- There is a boltree bush at the end of Kilkenny's porch in the village of Scrigg and a pot of gold hidden under it. One morning very early a man of the village heard a voice outside his door. The voice told him where the gold was and also that a wild cat was minding it. It told him he had to go while Mass was on. The man answered and said, "Won't the cat kill me?" "He won't but someone belonging to you will lose a foot or an arm?" He never went to find it.
