William Ellis, a farmer at Little Gaddesden for thirty years, details a wide variety of culinary and medicinal recipes, and methods for household management, for example he advises foot-sore travellers 'put an Egg in each Shoe when you walk'. Unusually the medical receipts are littered with reports of cures: One Mr. Fennel of Leighton says, That he has taken 40 Drops of Balsam of Sulphur for the Stone-Cholick, by dropping them in the Middle of a Glass of White-wine, which made it look like the Yolk of an Egg, and then went to Bed. This he did once a Week for some time, and it made him piss Stones on the Ground as big as a Thetch, after being troubled with the Gravel 20 Years'. (1)
