  1. (continued from previous page)
    There lived in Knockaderry a woman named Joan Grogan she used to cure people. When she would be going to the house of the sick person if she came to a stream across the road (there were no bridges there at that time) she would roar for help and who ever would be with her should hold her. Then when she would have crossed the stream she would get all right again.
