- My granny knew a lady who once bought a wash-board . She placed it in a wash-tub, which contained soiled clothes, and soapy water. She told the board to wash, and returned after about an hour, to find that the clothes were as she had left them.

She asked for a different kind of one as that one she concluded was evidently broken.Molly Smyth heard this from her granny - Mrs Doyle
