  1. Biddy Early
    There was a woman once named Biddy Early who lived in the County Clare about sixty years ago and she was able to cure people of every disease.
    Once upon a time a man lived in Nenagh and his wife got a fall and became an invalid. As he had a horse and car his neighbours suggested that he should take her to Biddy Early.
