Scope and Content Note

The Butcher’s Cookbook consists of a leather bound notebook containing instructions on preserving and curing meat, and recipes for various meat dishes from around the 1910s. The name A.D. Payne is on the front cover and is the author of the book. Zack Spratt collected cookbooks, many of which are housed in the Winthrop Library, and speculated that “these notes were taken by someone [A. D. Payne] working in a packing plant.” Zack Spratt is most likely Zaccheus Spratt (1884-1978) and was a relative of the Fort Mill, SC Spratt Family.
