This recipe was extracted from Cookery for every household (1914) by Florence B. Jack, page 351. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Ox Tongue, To Pickle Choose a nice fresh tongue with a smooth skin and prepare it carefully. Wash and scrape it thoroughly until all the slimy substance is removed, then rinse in fresh cold water and dry. Trim away some of the root, gristle, and superfluous fat, and rub the tongue well with common salt, being particular to go over every part. Now set it aside and let it drain for several hours, or overnight. Prepare some pickle as directed in Recipe 861
