OP RE: . It would appear to mean that if you can't get a small amount of lead with three whacks of your pick, you're no good as a miner.
to nick the stowe, you have produce 3 dishes of ore, and a dish is defined as the amount one man can carry out of a mine (later, defined as about 40 pounds) at time.
there is a local governing 'board'.. The Miners Board, that has the 'offical dish', and that monitors claims, and collects the taxes. its not just 3 swings of an pick ax!
