"Min-air-uck" ( min aerach ? ) a form of liver trouble commong among children long ago was cured by an old woman called Mrs Carrey. She got the seeds of "Self-Heal" and sprinkled them in water, then stirred them in while saying a prayer which contained some words about the "plant being found near the Cross on Good Friday."
