[RC] Cold Mountain Lameness Remedy - rides2far


Surprized at the response about similar treatments.  I thought my 
story  was
a fluke.  Maybe those old timers knew something?     Maybe not?

I haven't seen the movie or the original post on this subject but I'm
guessing what it was.

I have a photo of a QH with his foot on fire I could scan if anyone would
like to see it. A girl at my barn had him for sale when he got an abcess.
The ad was already in the paper and she wanted him sound fast. The
farrier was there. He'd heard of this treatment and she figured she'd let
him try it. He took a wet towel and wrapped it around the coronary band
and poured lighter fluid or something in the sole, then lit it. When I
heard what he was going to do I ran for my camera. :-) By the way, it
didn't seem to help, or hurt. The horse was unconcerned. 

On the subject of "Cold Mountain". We bought the soundtrack and I was
surprised to see the old Sacred Harp style (Fa Sa Lo) singing on it was
recorded at Liberty Baptist Church in Henegar, Alabama  40 miles from
here where my family homesteaded and we still own the land. Liberty
Baptist is where my grandpa used to go to sing Sacred Harp style. I have
his old song book here. If you hear it now you can guess how I'd talk.
