  1. The Irish especially the people of Donegal used to make what was called a "broze."

    They filled a vessel called a "moggin" with Oat meal and […] soup, put salt and pepper on it mixed all together and […] it with a wooden spoon. The "noggin" was also made of wood, and I often heard people say. I have as much in my noggin as I am able to sup.

    One night two men were out "ranking" and they asked the woman of the house to make them a "broze" She had a big pot of soup on the fire and she made the "broze" for them.

    When they had eaten it.
