“In the West (Co. Sligo) when a person got sick,”
In the West (Co. Sligo) when a person got sick, and their people went to the priest he gave them "a gospel" for sick person to wear - it was about the size of an Agnus Dei, with a cross on outside - and I am sure he read the prayers of the church for the sick person; very often they were cured.
They used get the priest to read over a sick person also.
