- If a young child becomes ruptured the cure can be performed by his parents only.
They must go to a planting or grove where there are young ash trees growing. The father msut split the tree in the middle from top to bottom with a saw. The father then keeps the tree open and the mother passes the child in and out to the husband nine times. This must take place before sunrise on three successive mornings. As the tree knits so the will the child improve.
