HILARIOUS, Jack!!! I've about laughed myself silly... Thanks for a much needed one -- Nancee -------Original Message------- From: wm0g@comcast.net Date: 07/21/05 18:53:56 To: IALUCAS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [IALUCAS] AN OLD RECORD. I think they mean a single blade furrow or plow used for cultivating. Horse or oxen drawn, of course - (see yoke of cattle below). Probably made of steel like an Ames plow. OR.. they meant frow like Frau Hilda - maybe he had a German wife?? <grin> $1.00 seems a little low though for that kind of frau.-- I'll be standing by for all the flaming replies :-).
