TUlaTgil, 



A famous old English dessert apple, rarely seen in this 

 country, but much better adapted for the closing of a feast 

 than many which are more pretentious in style and im- 



posing in size. Certainly much more economical to him 

 who provides even at a higher price per bushel than those 

 which are too large to be eaten, and are only cut to be left
