  1. A Secret Cure for Rush of Blood

    Share Share Post
    Note from Mr Boggan, Kilmuckridge, aged 30 -
    There is a man living in this district who it is said can cure a "Rush of blood" by saying some secret prayer or incantation.
    He will not divulge the nature of this prayer, but there is this "evidence" of a man who told me of a cure this man carried out on his mother.
    The name of the man who can cure this rush of blood is Mr Michael Hamilton of Ballygarron, Kilmuckridge, aged about 55 yrs.
