Roll a few crackers ; beat two eggs ; wash your oysters or not, according to your notion, but the bits of shell must be removed ; dip your oysters into the egg, then into the rolled crackers ; take half butter, and half lard in a spider, have it hot ; (but not so hot that your oysters will burn ; ) fry them ; then have a colander in a pan on the stove, and as soon as done, put into the colander to drj'; when you have a dozen or so, take them out and put on a hot platter ; salt to you taste.
