this country as the Belle de Vitry, which is a distinct variety. 
We find it early, and very prolific.

Leaves glandless. Fruit large, roundish; suture clear round, 
deep on one side. Skin white, with a bright red cheek. Flesh 
white, very melting and juicy; of a very delicious, slightly 
vinous flavour. Freestone. 20th to last of August. Hardy, 
vigorous, and productive; one of the best, handsomest, and largest

is one of their most profitable market varieties.
