  1. Soap-Making

    Share Share Post
    A very long time ago
    Mr Mc Cardle who lived in Emmyvale made soap. He made the soap with caustic soda and fat. He boiled the three liquids together and put them in to shapes. He then put them outside to harden. His brother went about selling the soap and they both made a lot of money.
