Well, at least that limited the amount of time you had to spend in there.
I was about the size of a toothpick when I was 4 so that place terrified me. To solve the problem one of my older brothers went out and got a toilet lid.....I'll bet he got it from the dump ...and somehow sawed a little hole in the lid that better fit the size of my butt. He instructed me to place the lid with the smaller hole in it on top of the existing outhouse toilet hole and that's what I used.
Mind you, this was not the 1860's....it was the 1960's! Yeah, fun times.
