- From P. Flattery Oaten and Wheaten Bread was baked in front of the fire. But some people had another way. There was a hole in the wall and a place for fire and a griddle on two rollers easy to glide in and out. You could bake a cake would do half the town that way, the grandest bread in the world. There was a door on the hinges that let down. Peter saw bead being backed like that in Matthew Dunley's
They had the name in " Ogan's" (i..e Higgins')
N.B. This probably explains the hole or niche in Griffiths chimney (see P10).- Informant
