hmmm...

The text of Hohman's The Long Hidden Friend (1819), which has widely been credited as the source of spells and cures used by the 19th century PA German hex-doctors, is available in the article "The Long Hidden Friend," Carleton F. Brown, John George Hohman and Johann Georg Hohman, The Journal of American Folklore, Vol. 17, No. 65 (Apr. - Jun., 1904), pp. 89-152. Which is available through JSTOR, though I will have to wait until I have the printer at home set up in order to print it out-- it's 65 pages, and of course a JSTOR subscription is required: http://tinyurl.com/4v9fwq
This looks like fun!

However, this one:
The witches' pharmacopœia. Read before the Historical Club of the Johns Hopkins Hospital, April 13, 1896. By Robert Fletcher, M.D. Baltimore, The Friedenwald Co., Printers, 1896. is available through Google Books: http://tinyurl.com/3jokul
