Minna was a midwife and helped many a baby into the world. She was also a faith doctor who could heal people afflicted with a skin rash -- but only if the people believed. She and the afflicted person would go outside when the moon shined bright. She would hold up her hand so it cast a shadow over the diseased skin and would mumble some words. In a few days the place would be healed. It is said a lady from Galveston came all the way to see Minna But she did not believe and was not healed.
