November 18th : PORK LOZENGE
A keen sportsman of my acquaintance, whenever a roast leg of pork came to table, was sure to partake of it, not only from his affection for pig-meat, but to enable him to cut away the crackling, scrape it quite free from fat, and divide it into lengths of about an inch, fold these morsels in paper, and fill his waistcoat pocket with them whenever he rode to hounds, or handled his double-barrelled Manton; and he has often assured me that he derived great sustenance and support by allowing these “ Pork Lozenges," as he was pleased to call them, to dissolve in his mouth.
