Mince the meat and dress as in lobster salad. Send in on the back- shell of the crab.

2

Slice six large onions and fry in the gravy of fried salt pork ; cut five pounds of bass or cod into strips about three inches long and one inch thick and line the bottom of a pot with them ; scatter in a few slices of onions, a little salt, half a dozen whole black peppers, one or two cloves, a pinch of thyme and one of parsley, a tablespoonful of tomato or mush- room catsup and six oysters, then a layer of oyster crackers buttered thickly and well soaked in milk, another layer of fish, onions, seasoning, and so on until all are used up ; cover with water, boil slowly for an hour and pour out. Serve with capers and sliced lemon. A cup of oyster liquor added to the chowder while boiling improves it.
