Would you please send it to my e-mail address. I read it when I was a boy 
and forgot about it completely.

Rao gAru, I remember the end of story in a different way. The demon is 
not there in the story I remember. Siva, gives the cure by ordering 
natkIra to go to SrIsaIlam and take a dip in the river/pond. natkIra gets 
rid of leprosy by doing exactly what Siva says.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Regards,
Ramanna
