- Hidden Treasures.1. About a quarter of a mile from Rathkeale station on the railway line to Ballingrane, on the right hand side about fifty yards in, there is a big mound in the centre of a big bog, owned by Mr. D. Culhane. It is said that a gold chalice is hidden under this mound, and a great deal of stones is covering it. A man from this town named Mr. J. Mulcahy went to get this treasure, and when he was half-way down a big black dog stood behind him, and started growling at him and, making signs to go away, and he never went near it since.Written by John McNamara.Information from Mrs. O'Brien,
New Road,
Rathkeale.
