  1. Local Cures - Thrush

    Share Share Post
    Thrush Thrush was cured by a girl who never saw her mother. This person spat into the mouth of the child with this disease and the child was then cursed.
    John Creed 16.11 1937
    Warts Warts were cured by meeting a brown stone accidently with a hollow in the middle of it. There must be water in this hollow. Wash the warts in it and they will vanish.
