- (continued from previous page)a lisord, if an other person got burned he could cure them, by licking their burn with his tongue. My uncle told me this story
Cure for stomach pain.
To get three cups and put a picch of soda in each cups. and drink, and say, in the name of the Father,
And of the Son,
and of the holy Gost.
Cure for sore throat.
To let a raw onion and put sugar in it, and let in down your neck if you could, without breaking any of it.
Cure for a pain in the back.
To lie down in the floor, and let some body walk on your back
My father told me these cures.
