Put in a punch bowl 1 bottle old Antigua rum, 2½ bottles water, ¾ tumbler lump sugar, and the yellow peel of three lemons. Let the peel remain in the mixture 20 minutes, stirring slowly so that the sugar dissolves well, and the oil from the lemon peel flavors the toddy. Take out the peel, let the toddy stand for about 20 minutes before using, then add a lump of ice the size of two fists, and serve.
