Whole wheat bread (untested)

This typewritten recipe is missing the measurement for flour and the instructions for that section recipe. I don't know why. Maybe Grammy (or her friend who typed this recipe for her) accidentally skipped over it during typing. Until Hubby and I get a chance to test this recipe, this crucial section of the recipe will have to remain a mystery.
