   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   We have a churn at home.
   It is about two feet [?] [?] ins high.
   It is thirteen inches wide in top and fifteen on the bottom.
   The sides are straight and about a foot from the top where the cap of the churn and the bottom meet there is a place where it goes in and slopes out again at the bottom.
   It is about forty years old.
   The various parts are the churndash, and lid.
   There is no mark on the sides of it
   The butter is made once a week in Winter and twice or three times in Summer.
   My mother and aunt does the churning.
   Anyone who comes in during churning helps because it is said if they did not put their hands in the churn there would be no butter on it
   It takes about an hour and sometimes two
   Churning is done by hand.
   The churndash is worked upwards and downwards and when the butter is made the dash is given a rolling motion from side to side to gather the butter.
   When the dash becomes free from butter people know it is churned.
   Water is poured in during the process.
