This recipe was extracted from The Queen Cook Book: A Careful Compilation of Recipes and Practical ... (1895) by William Hart Boyd, page 83. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Canned Peaches. Select fruit just ripe, but not soft, the late Crawford is the best, though there is a very rich white peach if you can obtain it. Peel and cut in halves, take out the pit, cover them with a paper, as they turn dark in the atmosphere; (have a wet cloth in your dish, to wipe knife and fingers on often for paring all fruits). Rinse quickly in water and drain. One cup of sugar to two quarts of peaches
