  2. 7. People say that if you take some clay off St. Kieran's grave in Clonmacnoise, that there is a cure in it for a bad stomach. There is a cure in elder leaves and pig's lard for infected soars. The elder leaves are ground and are cooked with lard, strained and put into glass jars and in three days after it is ready for use. There is a cure in ferret's milk for ring worm.
