closely with rye and Indian meal crust.
Bake four or five hours, then break the
rust up, push it down into the hot
apples, cover tightly and bake for two
or three hours longer; then take form
the oven and let it stand covered until
morning, when, with good rich milk, you
will have a dish fit to set before the
king or any other man.
