Hidden Treasure

In the village of Prison, Parish of Balla, Co;Mayo. There stand the walls of an old Prison. It is built about 200 years. It was built by a man named Tobias Bourke who was king of Connacht. There was some gallows in it on which people were hanged. The mortar which was used in the building of it was mixed with blood.
There is a pot of gold hidden under one of the chimneys with a stone 1 cwt over it. A man named Pat Kelly dreamt three nights after each other that there was a pot of gold hidden under the chimney but that there was to be a life lost over it. He did not try to find it.
There have often been strange lights seen round it. There was no road leading to it but there was a secret underground passage connecting it with the public road about a quarter of a mile to the East of the building.
There was another underground passage leading to the grave-yard where the victims were buried.
Tobias Bourke had another castle in Ballintubber it was.
