  This is my interetation of my Great Aunt Ellen's recipe. Ellen Nott
  lived in Cornwall all her life, never venturing as far afield as
  England. She would have learned to cook from my Great Grandmother
  Rollins who was born in 1846.
  
  My mother started a personal cook book in 1937 as a high school
  Home Economics project and continued it when she married in 1947,
  collecting both newspaper clippings in it and hand written recipes
  from relatives. This recipe was found loose on a scrap of paper in
  that book and is the only one in Aunt Ellen's own hand (collected
  during a trip to Cornwall in 1938).
  
  "Cut up some apples to nearly half fill the dish. Then cut up one nice
  large onion. Add 2 teaspoons full of spice, not the sweet, but what
  you put in pork pudding. It's sold by weight; you can get 2 ounces
  and keep it in a tin if its a [illegible]. Get 1/2 or 3/4 lb mutton;
  cut it up just like we should for a pasty and a good cup of sugar.
  Then more apples to fill the dish."
  
  Preheat the oven to 400F.
  
  Make pastry and roll out 1/4" thin.  Cut out the bottom crust and
  line a 10" pie pan with it. Sprinkle the sliced apples with the
  sugar. Cut meat in 1/2" cubes and mix with the seasonings. Place half
  the apples into the pie, then the seasoned meat. Add a layer of
  sliced onions and top with the remaining apples.
  
  Top with the second crust, crimp the edges and make 3 vent holes to
  allow steam to escape.
  
  Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes and then reduce the heat to
  300 degrees F and bake for 1 3/4 hours.  If necessary place some
  aluminim foil on the top to prevent burning. Remove from the oven and
  allow to cool somewhat before serving.
