Baked Chickens

After having washed the chickens, split down the back bone, put them in a dripping pan with half cup of butter and one cup water, cover them until nearly done, then take off cover. Have a very hot oven and brown them. The taste is very similar to broiled chickens, many prefer them cooked in this way, to broiled chickens.
