“As to our City of Dublin; Shambles may be appointed for this purpose, in the most convenient Parts of it; and Butchers we may be assured will not be wanting; although I rather recommend buying the Children alive, and dressing them hot from the Knife, as we do roasting Pigs” (Swift).
“... I compute that Dublin would take off, annually, about Twenty Thousand Carcasses; and the rest of the Kingdom (where probably they will be sold somewhat Cheaper) the remaining Eighty Thousand” (Swift).
