Put two quarts of good ripe blackberries into a stew pan with about a half a pound of sugar; let them simmer or boil until they become soft; if not sufficiently juicy, add a moderate amount of water; stir them occasionally, and add a stick of cinnamon; rub up one-quarter of a pound of butter with four tablespoonful fine flour (rub it smooth as for drawn butter) mix this by degrees with the berries, and boil them a little longer. To be eaten when cold.
