- There are quite a lot of cures that Doctors do not give. For Saint Anthony's fire get the comb or blood of the cock and rub it to it. For corns put the poker into the fire, and get a piece of washingsoda and when the poker is red put it to the soda and hold it over the corn and let it drop onto the corn. This is to be done for nine nights and the corns will be cured.
For whooping cough, cure by holding the child over boiling tar.
