- (continued from previous page)3. If two people with the same sur-name get married they have the cure of the Whooping Cough. They crumble bread into a bowl and they put their hands into it and mix the bread up and give it to the person to eat.
4. The cure of the blast:- To cure the blast you get the blast herb. You get it in some fields. It grows like a lily-leaf only it is very small and a thing like a saw grows up the centre. There is no seam in it like any other leaf.Told to Molly Kelly by her father Mr. M. Kelly.- Collector
