Entry 4062
Stop it in a bottle.
(This chamber lye?)
Yessuh, yo' put it in a bottle. Ketch yore chamber lye an' put it in a bot- tle. An' put chew a little stoppah - little hole [in it] jis' enough tuh git a drop evah now an' den. An' bury dat bottle up, bottom- side up, an' evah now an' den, drop by drop, [will come] from dat bottle. An' dat will cut yore watah off an' pine yuh 'way tuh nuthin.
[As in the preceding rite, I begin to fish.]
(I see. You say you make a hole so that a drop will come out?)
Yes sir, one drop evah now an' den. Hold dat bottle up [and test it] 'fo' [before] yuh take it [and bury it].
(Oh, I see. Only one drop comes out of there.)
One evah now an' den.
(I see.)
Evah now an' den a drap will fall from dat bottle, but yuh bury dat bottle bottomside upwards.
[My fishing produced only the testing of the bottle. Good advice at that!]
