This recipe was extracted from Ransom's family receipt book, 1885 (1885) by D. Ransom, Son & Co, page 14. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

twelve cups of flour, one of white sugar, one half of butter or lard, one of yeast, one grated nutmeg, and three eggs. Mix with three large cups of warm milk, and let it rise over night; if well risen in the morning, knead and set in a cool place until three o'clock in the afternoon, then shape into long rolls, .as you do White Mountain rolls, and let them rise one hour and a half. Bake half an hour in a moderate oven. When done, glaze them with a little milk in which a little brown sugar has been dissolved, and set them back in the oven for two minutes. These are for tea. They are nice, sliced thin, when cold. -Bunns are made the same as coffee rolls
