Cranberry Sauce.

1 pint of cranberries.

1/2 pint of granulated sugar.

1/2 pint of water.

Pick over the cranberries. Wash them, and put in a granite-ware or porcelain stewpan; then add the water and the sugar. Cook the sauce rapidly for ten or fifteen minutes; then turn into a bowl and set away to harden. This gives a sauce that will jelly. If liked softer, use a little more water.
