According to Duhamel, this is a sub-variety of Sanguinole which it surpasses. It 

 was brought to America by W. R. Prince as a curiosity. The flesh is dark purple; the 

 quality is poor. In warmer climates, it does much better than here and is esteemed for 

 preserves and compotes; ripens in October.

This variety is not large as the name would indicate. Glands globose; flowers small; 

 fruit oval; flesh white and well-flavored; ripens the last of September.
