- (continued from previous page)It is a cure for warts to steal a bit of meat from your neighbour and while the meat would be rotting the wart would be rotting also.
The old people held that nine irons to rub them to a wound or ache each of the irons once cured it.
People drink soot for a stomach pain.
Then when the old people would be in trouble this is what they would say:" Is goire cabhair Dé na an doras "
There was an old man there once that used to say to his wife:
" Musha Mary throw the coat hether on me the cold of the country is above on my back ".
