Morris Red

Characterization - continued

even with its coarse texture and
lack in richness.  However, quality
varied - apparently with time of
picking an maturity; perhaps
also with the season.
10/16/24 it was considered fairly
rich, pretty good.

9/23/27 it was characterized as having
white flesh, fine grained, breaking,
juicy, mild subacid - but too
immature for quality reading.
considered likely good to very 
good.  The white flesh raises a
question as to variety - or maybe 
its maturity.

9/23/27 - badly watercored
1928 - no water core to be
found.

See storage notes
for quality.
