          flat, not much flavor. Either lost flavor
beyond what its physical condition would
suggest - or else inherently poor in
dessert quality (the latter being
apparently true).

1927 crop. Stored 10/10/27; out 2/4/28
Exam 2/8/28. Good condition - still
rather hard. Fine grain, firm,
fairly juicy, fairly sprightly, mild
subacid with peculiar but not
unpleasant flavor. Perhaps
it would be described as a
crablike flavor. This report
is in strong contrast to any
that preceeds it - Others referred
to lack of juice, mildness of
acidity - flat etc.
Possibly the long slender
stem may indicate crab
parentage in ancestory [ancestry].
