Mussels, Stewed

Take some carefully-prepared mussels, put them into a saucepan with as much of their liquor, strained and previously boiled with a blade of mace, as will be required to cover them. Let them stew gently, and just before boiling add a thickening of butter and flour blended together. Serve on hot toast. Time, eight to ten minutes to stew.
