Apples with Butter-Vanille

Peel three large, sound, green apples; cut in halve, cut out the cores, then cut each half in four slices. Place in an earthen baking dish, arranged in the form of a crown, one overlapping another; sprinkle with two tablespoons fine sugar, drop two teaspoons vanilla essence evenly over them. Divide a half ounce good butter in small bits, and place the apples; cover with a lightly buttered piece of white paper. Place in a hot oven to bake for fifteen minutes or till soft;' remove,, dress six saucers with four slices of apple, pour the liquor over, evenly divided, and serve.
