- There is no one in this district having the cure of taking dust out of the eye. There is a woman in Cooga named Mrs. Kennedy who has the cure.
When she is making the cure she gets two half cups of water. She prays over the cups and takes a drop of it now and again. The patient feels the eye getting better and when she is finished the dust that was supposed to be in the eye is to be seen in the cup.
This woman lives in Cooga in the parish of Kilglass in Co. Sligo.
