But after a while it was discovered that the ice was so smooth that almost anything could be used for coasting. The sledless ones rushed home and reappeared with all kinds of things. One little lad went down on a shovel and his intrepid little sister followed on a broom. Boxes and shingles and even dish-pans began to appear.
If it is to be kept some time, pack in little jars, and pour melted butter over the top. This receipt should have had place under "Meats," but was overlooked. One boiler for clothes, holding eight or ten gallons. Two dish-pans, one large, one medium-sized. One two-quart covered tin pail. One four-quart covered tin pail. Two thick tin four-quart saucepans. Two two-quart saucepans.
"Hank" Terriberry, in whose competent charge Symes had placed this portion of the wedding entertainment, realizing that, at best, pouring from a bottle and drinking from a glass is a slow and tedious process, to facilitate matters had provided two large, bright, new dish-pans which he filled with wine, also a plentiful supply of bright, new, tin dippers.
Imagine a big gymnasium with jack-o'-lanterns on the rafters and a blazing wood-fire in the wide fireplace, and five hundred figures in white circling and mingling among the shadows, and at least a thousand sticks of candy, and three big dish-pans full of peanuts, and gallons and gallons of red lemonade.
Wilkins's kitchen was as neat as a room could be, wherein six children came and went, but this kitchen was tidy with the immaculate order of which Shakers and Quakers alone seem to possess the secret, a fragrant, shining cleanliness, that made even black kettles ornamental and dish-pans objects of interest.

"Any how, this is your week to wash, and mine to wipe; go along and get the old things ready, and I'll be out in a minute." "I'll change with you next week," said Beatrice turning from the door, where she had stood contemplatively.
I soon found the man was angry over allowances the traveler had made in the previous week, and I was much interested and strongly in sympathy with him. "What did Labar say about the goods he returned?" he asked, as his eye caught that name in the list in his hand. "He claimed that he ordered dish-pans and that we sent rinsing-pans, and that the brushes were moth eaten." "What did you tell him?"
The same dresser, or a space over the sink, must hold washing-pans for meat and vegetables, dish-pans, tin measures from a gill up to one quart, saucepans, milk-boiler, &c. Below the sink, the closet for iron-ware can be placed, or, if preferred, be between sink and stove. A list in detail of every article required for a comfortably-fitted-up kitchen is given at the end of the book.
