- Folk Cures.(The following are some of the folk cures commonly practiced some fifty years ago. They were given to me by Mrs. Mary Griffin, aged 67, who got them from her mother, Mrs. Margaret Connolly, who died 1936 aged 97. They both lived all their lives at Baranique, Carrickerry, Ardagh, Co. Limerick.)
