1 opossum
Salt and pepper
1 chopped onion
1 tbsp. fat
1 c. bread crumbs
1/4 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 hard boiled egg
1 tsp. salt-water
Bacon

Rub the cleaned opossum, salt and pepper. Brown the onion in fat, add opossum liver and cook until tender. To this add the bread crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, egg and salt-water. Mix these ingredients thoroughly and stuff the opossum with it. Then turn the opossum like a fowl and put it in the roasting pan. Put bacon across the back. Pour 1 quart water into the pan before placing the opossum in a moderate oven. Roast, uncovered, basting every 15 minutes until the opossum is tender (about 2 1/2 hours).
