Baked Tomatoes

Peel the tomatoes and cut them in slices one-fourth of an inch thick. Place a layer of tomatoes in a pudding dish, and sprinkle over them a little salt and pepper. Make a stuffing of one cup of bread crumbs; one tablespoon of butter; one teaspoon of salt; one-fourth teaspoon of pepper; one teaspoon of sugar. Rub the butter into the crumbs, and add the salt, pepper and sugar. Spread the mixture thickly upon the tomatoes, using all of it, and add another layer of tomatoes. Dot the top with pieces of butter, dust with pepper and a little sugar, strew with dry crumbs, and bake covered for one-half an hour; then remove the lid, and bake until brown.
