    After heavy colds many people but more especially children suffer from a kind of decline, which the people of Rathangan District called "The Mion-fhéarach". They believe that this disease can be cured only by a concoction of herbs. Mr. Peter Behan, Kilnantic, Rathangan, gathers the required specimens and compounds the bottle.
