This is a quote from an immigrant to America in the mid-1800's.
There is no failure in the potato crop, and you can grow every crop you wish...I shudder when I think that starvation prevails to such an extent [at home]. After
supplying the entire population of America, there would still be as much corn and provisions.... for there is no limit to cultivation or end to land. Here the meanest
laborer has beef and mutton, with bread, bacon, tea, coffee, sugar, and even ples, the whole year round.
Based on this quote, this immigrant most likely came from which European nation?
