TO ROAST A TURKEY.
Wash and clean the turkey well; make a dressing of bread, butter, pepper and salt; fill your turkey; have some boiling water in the bottom of the tin kitchen: when half done, sprinkle with pepper and salt, baste and turn it often, make a gravy with the giblets hashed; season with pepper and salt; stir a little brown flour in the gravy; send it to table in a gravy boat. A large turkey will take three hours to roast.
