Loaf Cake of Indian Meal

Rub four ounces of fresh butter into one pound of Indian meal. Pour over it as much boiling milk as will make it into a thick batter, and when this is cool stir into it two well-beaten eggs. Stone a quarter of a pound of raisins. Wash, pick, and dry a quarter of a pound of currants. Dredge over them as much fine flour as will adhere to them, and stir them into the batter, and afterwards stir in six ounces of moist sugar. Pour the mixture into a well-buttered mould, and bake in a moderate oven for two hours. Probable cost, 1s. Sufficient for half a dozen persons.
