Boil a pair of chickens until you can pull the meat from the bones. Take out the meat and let the bones boil to a jelly. The next day cut the meat in pieces, throw it into the jelly, when melted, and add to it catsup, salt, allspice, cloves and mace; cut up 6 or 8 hard boiled eggs and a lemon sliced. Then put into round dishes or moulds and let it cool for luncheon or supper.
