  1. Sprain- There are a lot of people around this country have cures for different diseases. There is a man living in Corrowallen. His name is Mr Bradley he has the cure of the sprain if you do not believe in the cure you need not be going for it. His father had the cure before him and when he was dying he gave it to him no one must know the cure only the man that has it or if he tells it the cure is no good. I got the cure of the sprain made once for my foot and before he made it the first thing he asked me was do you believe in this cure "and i said yes" it is by a prayer he made the cure.
