Mamoo:	Exactly. That was in	the back gallery	you see	and	Marie's
room, own bedroom,	was one	of the rooms off	this gallery, you
see. It was a great	big house here, the main house,	and	in back
of that there was a	gallery	and Marie's room	was off	the	gallery
and at the very end of the gallery was the toilet where we'd have to go if we wanted to go to a toilet. We'd have to go all the way out to the back porch, the way out to the toilet you see.
Alice:	It's awfully funny. The back toilet had been used for
servants as well as children, you see. In those days it was very funny to mix up children and servants.
Mamoo: That's right. We didn't.
Alice:	Well, we did because...
Mamoo:	Now,	Alice, there was b toilet downstairs thouqh for Judie
and for the cook. Now you know that, you see...
Alice:	And the cook, the cook had another John in the back
downstairs.
Mamoo: She did.
Alice:	Under the top (?) Anyhow you want to go on from there?
Would you eat anything before you went over to. . .
Alice:	Would we eat before breakfast to Grandpapa's? Never. We
never went out without a whole breakfast. His breakfast was about nine o'	clock and we came down for breakfast about I guess, nine.
Mamoo:	We must have eaten breakfast then before we went over to
see Grandpapa.
Alice:	Hunh?
Mamoo:	We ate breakfast before we went to see Grandpapa.
Alice:	Yes, certainly.
Mamoo:	I don't remember that at all as a matter of fact.
Alice: And we had a big breakfast.
M^moo: Maybe we did.
Alice:	We always had juice. We had a cereal.
Mamoo:	Oatmeal. I don't remember what we had for breakfast.
