Anchovy Sandwiches

Empty a bottle of anchovies into a bowl of water, and wash them thoroughly, changing the water frequently. Put them, when drained and boned, into a mortar with an equal quantity of butter, and pound well to a very smooth paste. Spread this over thin slices of bread, put two of those together to form the sandwich, and serve.
