- (continued from previous page)eighty or ninety years ago and that morning was the first time for the woman of the house to make tea. She put a "skib" over a pot and put some tea-leaves in the "skib" and scalded them.
Then she gave the tea-leaves to the priest and she was going to throw out the water when the priest said: "Oh! I would rather the water". That is how the people first knew how to make tea.- Collector
