Take one peck of green tomatoes; one-half peck of white onions; three ounces of white mustard seed; one ounce each of allspice and cloves; one-half pint of mixed mustard; an ounce of black pepper and celery seed each; and one pound of brown sugar. Chop the tomatoes, and onions, sprinkle with salt, and let stand three hours; drain the water off; put in a preserve kettle with the other ingredients. Cover with vinegar, and set on the fire to boil slowly for one hour.
