Back then the people of the town and to buy a loaf of bread and cut the bread themselves.  So after that note Rowdder got straight to work. Rowedder tried many times and failed many times. But Rowedder came up with a way not only to slice bread but, to keep it from going stale. Once foot long three foot high invention sliced bread, it would wrap wax paper around the pre-sliced bread, so it wouldn’t go stale.
