    bread they used to eat. They made enough of bread for a few day's at a time, They put three strokes on the top of the cake and sometimes they put a cross The vessel that they used to make the bread in was called the bread pan. If they wanted the fire to boil any-thing else they would put it standing by the fire-side, (they used to) it was a piece of iron they used to put against it. Griddle bread was made in a griddle pan. They used to make griddle bread in the gathering of the Harvest. They used to make pan cake's on Shrove Tuesday night.
