If a person is held under an ass and the ass is given bread to eat and then the person eats a little of the same bread he will be cured of whooping cough.
There is a well in the Grallagh graveyard the water of which cures whooping cough. If you tie a live caterpillar on a string round your neck, as it withers away the whooping cough will wear away.
If you put Saint Patrick's leaf on a cut it will stop it from bleeding.
