Health:
"Peter Redner had the misfortune to be bitten in the foot by a rattlesnake, but was healed by a man who lived at the Carrying Place, who procured an herb called "rattlesnake weed". In order to prevent the poison from going up the leg, he tightly bound the ankle with a black ash bandage that had been taken from a root of the tree that was below water; and then applied the rattlesnake weed in some special fashion. Redner was saved, but the skin of his whole foot spotted like that of the rattlesnake. These snakes were so common at that time that the mowers and harvesters had to use every precaution when at their work, and would closely bind grass ropes round their boots and legs up to their knees."
