    Mr. Patrick Noone has a great number of cures. He has the cure of the head fever. He measures the head, and a great number of other things. He also has the cure of raising the pallet of the mouth. With this he pulls a certain hair on the head, and I think says some prayers. He has the cure of the heartache. He fills a cup of meal and covers it and says some prayers. Then he gives the meal to be made into a cake and eaten.
