- When a boil comes in your foot a leaf of cabbage will cure it. Leave the cabbage one night with the boil and in the morning the boil will be nearly gone.

You must put it with your eye a night before the onion will cure it.

“I was at a meeting in Loughrea at which Michael Davitt gave a speach...”
I was at a meeting in Loughrea at which Michael Davitt gave a speach and after the speach a man stood up and said.

With a harp and a shamrock so true
You'll think up on brave Michael Davitt
And the work that John Dillon did do."Nora Connors, Roveagh, Kilcolgan, Co Galway
