    'rounds' are performed and while they are making the rounds rosaries and prayers are said. Many invalids and people who have diseases go there, and they are cured. People who have any affected part of the body wash it and the water is supposed to have cured some people. There is a big tree overhanging it and there are nails driven into the tree. Beads and ribbons are suspended from the nails.
