Chicken Salad (Boil one nice chicken When)

Boil one nice chicken. When thoroughly done chop very fine. Boil twelve eggs. Rub the yolks to a smooth paste. Add to this two tablespoonfuls of tomato catsup, one spoonful of all kinds of sauces, one teaspoonful of red pepper and one of black, one large onion chopped fine, one teacup of mashed Irish potato made soft with vinegar. Skim off water in which the chicken was boiled, add one cup of celery chopped fine. Put on ice in a flat pan so as to cut into squares. Serve with water cresses. -Mrs. John Durst.
