- (continued from previous page)Cure for Chin Cough in ChildrenA little herb or weed (which I believe is the pimpernel) is used locally as a sure preventative of the above named disease.
The plant is boiled in milk and the hot milk given to the children who are in danger of getting the disease.
A sample of the plan is enclosed herein.
Got from an old woman named Bridget Markam, Age 68
