Spiced Plums

4 quarts plums

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

3 pounds sugar

1 tablespoon cloves

1 pint vinegar

1 tablespoon allspice

Make a sirup from the vinegar, sugar and spices. Boil for five minutes. Prick each plum with a fork and pour the boiling sirup over the fruit. Let the whole stand three days, then skim out the plums, boil down the sirup until quite thick, add the plums and heat to boiling. Seal in clean, hot jars.
