  1. (continued from previous page)
    many people you had looking at them and she would also tell whether they were going to live or not. One time a man brought a cow to her to be cured. She told him how many people were looking at her. She told him the cow would live and the calf would die this turned out the truth.
    She nearly always cured the cattle that were brought to her. She never took any money for curing them but everyone used to bring her some present or other.
