Treacle Tart (UNCLASSIFIED)

[Mullins, Bill AMRDEC]

Classification:  UNCLASSIFIED
Caveats: NONE

Yesterday I posted a list of antedatings for terms from the OED Appeals
List.  I forgot to note what was being antedated with this one (the term
of interest is "treacle tart", for which the OED is seeking cites before
1893).
