Marrow Bones (Take the bones from two legs)

Take the bones from two legs of beef and saw them into pieces about four inches long. Scrape them well to clean them and put them in cold water to soak. Place them in a saucepan side by side, not standing up, cover with good stock, boil up quickly and then remove to the side of the fire and cook slowly for an hour and a half. Take out the bones, drain them, place on a napkin spread over a dish, and serve with slices of hot toast.
