Some simply crushed the fresh plant and bound it on, alternating it with a bread and milk poultice. Barnam said ‘The writer knows of 2 persons who were cured in this manner after their physicians had pronounced a cure impossible. It is also well to drink a tea made of Sheep Sorrel’. (Barnum: The Peoples Home Library, 1910)
