Oyster Croquettes

One pint of raw oysters, half a pint of cooked veal, two tablespoonfuls of butter, five spoonfuls of cracker crumbs, the yolks of four eggs, two small tablespoons of onion juice. Chop the oysters and veal very fine. Soak the cracker in the oyster liquor, mix well all the ingredients and then shape. Dip in egg, and roll in cracker crumbs, fry in hot lard. The butter should be melted before mixing with the above ingredients.
