SHAD ROE À LA MARYLAND

Put two or three roes in a well-buttered baking-pan, season with salt and pepper, add half a cupful each of stock and Sherry, spread the roe with butter, cover, and bake for fifteen minutes. Take up carefully and thicken the liquid with the yolks of three eggs beaten smooth with a cupful of cream. Take from the fire, add a tablespoonful of butter, pour over the roe, garnish with fried bacon, and serve.
