Roast Turkey, With Oyster Dressing

After washing turkey thoroughly, wipe dry and rub with a little salt. Have ready some bread cut in dice, salt, pepper, sage and one tablespoonful of butter, two dozen raw oysters.

Mix all together and stuff the turkey. Sew or skewer it; put in an oven and bake two and a half hours, basting frequently.
