  1. James Brown was the name of my father's landlord long ago.
    He was fifty years a landlord.
    He used never evict people.
    When people used be evicted some of the used go into a friend's house and some others used leave the country.
    He got his estate from his father William Brown.
    My parents never heard anything about tithes.
    They used collect money mostly.
    Two meals a day they used eat long ago, one in the morning and one in the night.
    They used work before the first meal.
    They used eat potatoes ver often and drink buttermilk.
    The table used be hung up on the wall when not in use.
    They used eat bread made only with their own hands.
    They used eat fish long ago.
