Preserved Pumpkin

Pare off the outer skin and cut the pumpkin in halves. Remove the seeds and divide each half into a number of smaller pieces. Cut or chip these into very small, thin shavings. To each quart of these chips allow one large orange. Shave the orange, rind and all, into thin slices, avoiding the core in the centre. Add the orange to the pumpkin, cover with two quarts of cold water and stand in a cold place over night. In the morning cook slowly .
