  2. There is a lone tree in our field at Bernard Tierneys. A lot of people they got cured was - they went to a blacksmith an asked him for a horsemail for God's sake. The blacksmith would give it to them. They would go to the tree and drive the nail in the tree. They would never have the tookache again. The tree is still to be seen in the field yet.
