    all over my body' 'You can get up on Sunday says I : you'll be well again Friday. Well I said the prayers. That was Friday, I went up again on Tues. + there wasn't a speck on him + when I went up again the next Friday he was up.
    It is all prayers, no one ever comes but gets well. I never refused saying the prayers for a Protestant. Mrs. Doyle was very bad + got well. Young Arrell was with three doctors : he was all bandages + he got cured.
    Pat Murphy Tinahely was five weeks in hospital in Dublin, he came to Mary Ann + was well in a week.
    Mary Ann used to blow but I don't."
