of remarkable events. As far back the recovery
of George III the practice prevailed. and another
occasion the conclusion of peace between
England and France in 1876 when the pie contained
half sheep twenty fowls and half peck of flour.
o celebrate her late majestys Jubilee, the pie
was baked in a dish weighing Is hundredweight 1t

total weight two tons. The cost was
$3.50 and it was drawn by ten horses Unfortuna te-

and another was made in the following September,
when more than two thousand persons partook
of it.
