    The old people here have a lot of cures for animals and for people also. Here are some of them
    Cure for a smalliskin
    If you had a smallisken on your eye and if you would lore it nine times with a gooseberry thorn or rub black tea of it your eye would get all right.

    If there were warts on your feet and if you saw water in a hole in a stone and you not to be looking for it you would get alright.
