From Silas Marner: "Mr. Crackenthorp, too, while he admonished Silas that his money had probably been taken from him because he thought too much of it, and never came to church, enforced the doctrine by a present of pigs' pettitoes, well calculated to dissipate unfounded prejudices against the clerical character." PETTITOES apparently means pigs' feet, especially when used as food. I have no idea what pigs' feet have to do with dissipating unfounded prejudices against the clerical character, but apparently something.

MOITHERED# (bewildered)
MAWKIN# (a scarecrow, but also, according to a footnote in the book, "a slatternly woman")
