- Women with loose heads.
Patrick Keigbery still living was the quack or charm setter in this case. Women who were suffering from head-aches, dizziness in the head were believed to have a loose head period.
The charm setter measured the head nine times, with a woollen thread -- saying certain prayers at the same time. This was repeated several times, on the same day of the week. The writer remembers seeing the charm being set by another charm-setter when a boy. The charm-setter usually got a piece of tobacco or some other present for his trouble.
