Arwilda’s note: Crossed out “brown” with no readable replacement. Brown is visibly crossed out, leaving the final ingredient 2 1/2 cup sugar.

Needs review

Uncertain onion ingredient wording: Word order is unclear in handwriting. Candidates: “1 qt white onions small”, “1 qt small white onions”.

Uncertain sugar ingredient unit: The final quantity is readable, but it is unclear whether the unit is written cup or cups. Candidates: “2 1/2 cup sugar”, “2 1/2 cups sugar”.

Uncertain vinegar direction wording: Small connector before “cover” is difficult to read. Candidates: “Vinegar to cover.”, “Vinegar & cover.”.
