Windsor Veal Pie

Fill a dish with alternate layers of lean veal cut into slices half an inch thick, and thin slices of lean ham, and season each layer with powdered mace and white pepper. Place a dish with a weight over the meat, and press it for half an hour. Pour upon it as much strong veal gravy (that will jelly when cold) as will cover it, and add a slice of fresh butter. Cover the dish with good pastry, and bake till done enough. Serve cold. Time to bake a moderate-sized pie, one hour and a half. Probable cost, fillet of veal, 1s. a pound.
