Yes, I can spell but the receipt (recipe) that you are looking at was named by G. Penn. The receipt calls for taking “a splinter” out of the cucumber, filling the cucumber, and then “ty the Coucumber Round with a thred very Close”. These pickles were prepared Sunday July 19th.

I am sorry, but I seem to be going in circles on your site. Do you tell how to pickle the cucumbers with a “splinter” taken out? You have a wonderful site.
I am sorry to hear of your Mother’s passing.
