Leeks, Soup of, Scotch

Put the water that has boiled a leg of mutton into a stew-pot, with a quantity of chopped leeks, and pepper and salt. Simmer them an hour. Mix some oatmeal with a little cold water quite smooth, pour it into the soup, and let it simmer very gently, stirring occasionally to prevent it burning, for about fifteen minutes longer.
