About the time of the civilwar I ate my first saucer of was made by my son-in-law tosell. Boys did not learn to chew orsmoke until they were about eighteenyears old. They had no money tobuy with. Their wages belonged totheir parents. Cnderclothing werepractically unknown until about or near the time of the Civil war. Over-coats were seen occasionally onmen; but boys and young men didnot have them. A clock cost $50 andoccupied a corner of the kitchen fromthe floor to the ceiling. They werenot as plenty as now. Watches werescarce except among the wealthy, orpersons who needed them, such asteachers and preachers.—Thomas RESIDENCES OF BEAVER SPRINGS
