Salt Risen Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 c. milk
    2 c. hot water
    3 c. cold water
    1 large pinch sugar
    double handful of cornmeal
    flour (see in directions)
    1 tsp. soda
    1 c. buttermilk
    lard (size of a walnut)
    12 to 15 c. flour
    1 Tbsp. salt
Preparation
    We remember our mother, Mrs. Charlie Ayers, making Salt Risen Bread from a recipe that we never saw written down but heard it from her and observed her making the bread many, many times.
    It was such a favorite with the family that some of the Ayers grandchildren still ask if anybody in the family remembers how to make it.
    That Salt Risen Bread, just out of the oven, dripping with real butter, was indeed delectable to the Ayers family and who ever happened to be visiting at the time.
