Pickled Blackberries
Take a gallon of ripe, firm blackberries; scald a pound of good brown sugar in a pint of good vinegar; pour this boiling hot over the berries. Let them alone six hours. Boil the syrup until the sugar is dissolved and begins to thicken. Add to it, when first put on the fire, cinnamon, cloves and allspice teaspoonful of all except cloves; half teaspoonful of this. Scald the berries in the syrup. Do not let them boil. Cover well in jars. i prefer air tight jars for all pickles and preserves and that they should be small, so that when opened they may soon be used.
