An attractive cookery manuscript, written mostly in one hand. Recipes include, among others, "To make Mushroom Powder, " A Receipt to pickle White Wall-nuts," "To collor A Pigg," "To make Stoughton's Drops," "For Scotch Collops." Near the end of the book the hand changes, to add such recipes as "Shoe-Balls," "Linctus for a Cough (Mrs. Great's)" Dates written in the manuscript, which probably refer to publications from which these recipes were copied, are September 26, 1818, January 6, 1820, The Edinburgh Medical & Surgical Journal July 1813. In some places the publication is referred to by abbreviations.
