  1. The people long ago never ate any sort of bread only oatmeal cakes. The people used to be a lot stronger than the people now.
    My father never got any other kind of bead only oaten bread, when he was young.
    It was made by mixing the oatmeal with water, and baked on a griddle over the fire.
    When it was ready to turn the people made four quarters of it with a knife because it was so thin.
