Peaches and Cream (Harder kinds of peaches should) (II)

The harder kinds of peaches should be chopped to the size of strawberries and mixed with sugar two or three hours before the meal. Allow about four ounces of sugar to a quart. Soft peaches, after peeling, are best only quartered or sliced. If admissible, serve them in large glass bowls ornamented with quarters of red or yellow peaches placed in order and a pitcher of cream with each bowl separately. If served individually in saucers, pour the cream over only as they are dished up.
