- One of the children gave me a curiously shaped piece of a branch which was cut on a "fairy rath". It is shaped as above shown. It is a cure or charm to cure warts . It looks to be fairly old . I think both ends were alike, But one is broken . The "eye" at the end is to put around the wart , after which the wart withes away.
