Allene Castle Thorniley's Huckleberry Buckle

1/2 c. shortening
1/2 c. sugar

Cream together shortening and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add:
1 egg and mix well
Sift dry ingredients and add alternately with 1/2 c. milk to creamed mixture.
2 c. flour
1/4 t. salt
2 1/2 t. baking powder
Line 8? square pan with waxed paper.
Pour batter into pan and sprinkle 2 cups fresh huckleberries over batter.
Add topping. Mix together until crumbly and sprinkle over the huckleberries.
1/2 c. flour
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/4 t. butter (I think this must be an error. I used 1/4 c. firm butter--mary ann laun) 12/2017

Bake at 350 for about 75 minutes.
Note: I think this is way too long. I did it for 60 and inserted a toothpick. It came out clean.
