PRESSED CHICKEN
Cook a fowl in just water enough to keep it from burning until the meat loosens from the bones. After it has cooled pick it to pieces and mix the light and dark meat. Boil till hard two eggs; slice thin and add to the picked up chicken. Boil down the water in which the chicken was cooked till it fills a small teacup; add a little pepper, butter and salt. Mix all with the picked up chicken; put in a mould or bowl; put on a weight to press, and set in a cool place. When time to serve tip the chicken on a platter and garnish with hard-boiled eggs and watercress.
