  1. Local Cures

    Share Share Post
    As regards those local cures everybody in the district knows who has them and I think it unnecessary to give the author as each child has heard it in his or her home. Some of the cures are mentioned over and over again by the different children.
    Mr Pete Heslin Drimmien Cloone Mohill has the cure of the ring worm. He makes a bottle to be taken for it.
