Green Tomato Pickles

Mrs. Spence.

Slice one peck of tomatoes into a jar, sprinkle a little salt over each layer; let them stand twenty-four hours, drain off the liquor; put the tomatoes into a kettle with a teaspoonful of each of the following spices : ground ginger, allspice, sloves, mace, cinnamon, a teaspoonful of scraped horse-radish, twelve small or three large red peppers, three onions, a cup full of brown suger; cover all with vinegar; boil slowly for three hours.

Neither add to nor take from any of the ingredients or quantities given in the recipe, as it is perfect.
