Plum Compote

One peck of plums (remove the pits), three oranges cut fine and seeded, three lemons, one pound of raisins (seedless and cut in half). Weigh the ingredients, and to each pound take three-fourths of a pound of sugar; boil the sugar with one pint of water, then add the compote and boil two hours or until thick, and can while hot.
