Summary
The evil eye and silver water.
The contributor can remember a church elder in Harris whose two cows stopped giving milk. He mentioned this while preaching in church and the milk was restored soon afterwards. The contributor thinks people with the evil eye could not help it. Silver water was used as an antidote for the evil eye. A silver coin was put into a bowl of water.
