- There is a lady named Mrs Hogan in Kilcullen. She cures Manara Fever. She gets a weed which she squeezes in her hand. While doing so she says some little prayer. If froth comes out of the weed she knows whether the person has the fever or not. You go to her three times - she rubs your feet, hands,neck and forehead with this weed _ While going to her_eggs, butter meat & other things must not be used.
