- there is a lady in the town of kildare the parents must take the child affected with consumption to her in a pony and trap. she mixes soldiers heads (plantain) , thistle tops and sovel together and the invalid must drink this juice and take it everyday instead of food - but when the parents are returning home they must not sleep before they get to their house - the medicine becomes useless.
- another cure is to swallow a live frog - it eats all the germs and then dies.
