    Cattle Cures.
    About eighty years ago, women made drinks from certain herbs, and gave a bottle of this, to each animal in Springtime. One of these women was known as Nóra Líam. This woman was supposed to travel by night with Good People as they were called. She had but one eye. She was known to have cured several cattle in her day.
