- (continued from previous page)Several people used tan their own leather. They used make tombereens of goat skins. A tombereen is a kind of a drum with which they used play music.
Mr Clancy my grandfather got a pair of shoes made out of a dog skin. He put the fresh skin into 'a' lime for three or four days to burn of the hair. When the hair was burnt of he hung it up and rubbed preservative to it.
