Boiled Ham

Wash the ham, place it in a saucepan, and cover it with hot water; simmer gently for about five hours, then move the saucepan on one side of the fire, and let the ham remain in the water for an hour or two longer. When it is almost cold remove, sprinkle over baked breadcrumbs and three or four tablespoonfuls of fine moist sugar.
