I always though that his death was bit cruel https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Boole#Death https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Boole#Death Died at a young age due to old a lack of medical understanding. I'm also from Cork and the phrase "What ails you cures you" is still used but normally in the context of a hangover and the suggestion being to go get the hair of the dog. I wonder what current medical/scientific beliefs will seem as far fetched in the year 2172.
