    herself and me, and don't come back till I tell you. Me mother told me long afterwards what happened then. She made Lizzie open her clothes till she came to the bare skin and she pressed the cup of meal so tight up against her stomach that she was hurting her. She kept it there for about five minutes and when she took it awau it wasn't half full although not a grain was spilt and from that to this damn the hate ever was wrong with her and she is the mother of 8 children.
