I thought that sounded familiar, and sure enough, we have a copy my father got years ago.
We think of catsup as made of tomatoes, now, but at one time it was simply a sauce that could be made of many things. I've got a recipe for grape catsup, for example.

Hello,
There is an interesting old book (1869) here with many odd entries that
pertain to fruit and nuts.
"Wright's book of 3000 practical receipts, or complete book of reference,
containing valuable and important receipts for medicine, cookery, pastry,
preserving, pickling, confectionary, distilling, perfumery, varnishing,
chemicals, dyeing, and agriculture, by A.S. Wright."

Who knew you could make walnut wine (page 8), or walnut catsup? (page 7)
The instructions for currant wine (page 128) are there too, along with
making grafting wax (page 6).
Very different approach to rooting apple cuttings on page 312.
Later,
Tom
