OYSTER LOAF OR "PEACE-MAKER."
This dish originated in the Crescent City. It is said when a man of convivial tendency stays out into the "wee sma' hours," he goes to a restaurant and purchases one of these loaves, which is warranted to pacify the most exacting and shrewish of wives. It is simply an ordinary loaf of bread, with crust all around from which a round piece has been cut to form a lid. All the crumb is scooped out, the hole is filled with hot fried oysters covered with several pickles, the lid is toasted and put on. The bread will keep the oysters warm for an hour.
