Early French Reinette

1809
July 31

An apple of a midling size, yellow color, sprightly acid
and not very juicy.  It is in perfection
during the latter part of July, but is sufficiently ripe
for use from the beginning of the month for stewing.
The tree resembles the Princes Harvest so much as to permit a
doubt of their being the same fruit.
and I can perceive no difference in
their appearance -- (see No 16)
