Entry 6682
I have a cousin and someone put something in the boots he wore, an' in going home he couldn't get back sometimes without crawling back home. His leg got sore, and after it got sore he was taken down to his bed. And before he died worms came out of his leg, that big, as round as my little finger, and tvo inches long with black heads. They carried hin to a woman and the woman said this was put in the boots he wore. They were like maggots but they were bigger tham that.
