  1. Once upon a time there lived a man in Dunganvill. There was a fort near his house. One day he went into the fort and he began pulling weeds and sticks. All of a sudden he saw a chalice he picked it up and looked at it. He ran home with it and showed it to his wife. His wife said to him "carry it in to Ardagh." So the man went away. When he came to the village he showed it to the people and one of the people said "give it to the parish priest." The man gave it to the parish priest and the priest sent it to the National Museum. That chalice is seen there yet.
