| In the year Of grace, at Christmas In 1859,
was dispatched from Howick Hall to Sir
! Henry Grey pie composed of the following
Ingredients Two bushels of -four. twenty
pounds of butter, four geese, two turkeys.
two rabbits, four wild ducks, two woodcocks,
six snipes, four partridges, two curlews, two
neats'tongues, seven blackbirds, six pigeons.
More than century has passed since the
pie par excellence was made at Howick Hall =;
but we know that Northumberland still
maintains its position for excellent game pies,
which are sent every Christmas to all parts of
England.
We find that in the 10Th of Henry Ill,
the Sheriff of Gloucester Was ordered by that
monarch to obtain twenty salmon, to be put
into pies at Christmas, and the Sheriff OF
Sussex ten brawns, ten peacocks and other
items, for the same purpose. We must not
omit from our bill of fare
CHRISTMAS PUDDING.
