    A person who sprains his foot is taken to a small waterfall and he holds his foot under the falling water and this eases the pain. Goose lard rubbed on a sprained foot eases the pain.
    If a child who is suffering from whooping cough is put three times under a donkey's stomach the cough will be cured. When a child has the whooping cough if you meet a man with a white or grey horse ask him for a cure. Then give the child whatever the man says and the cough will be cured.
