1

Cut cucumbers in thin slices, add one third as many onions as cucumbers, sliced very small. Salt them well in layers, let them stand five hours, then pour them into a cullender to drain. To two gallons of cucumbers put two tablespoonsful of ground pepper, the same of allspice and of cloves, half a pint olive oil, quarter pound mustard, and as much cider vinegar as will well cover them. Mix all together, and put them in jars tightly covered. Keep them in a cool place. They will be fit for use in a few weeks.
