Lord Doneraile and other masons held a meeting in one of the rooms not realising that Elizabeth was in the other room having fallen asleep whilst reading. The sound of voices awakened her and her curiosity aroused she removed a loose brick in the wall and observed the proceedings. It is reported a staff member discovered her.
