Mrs Fred Osborn's Corn Salad

This is an old family recipe from probably 50 years ago or more.

Corn Salad  by Mrs. Fred Osborn

Corn from 18 ears of corn
2 red peppers
2 green peppers
4 onions
1 head cabbage
1/4 cup salt
1 and 1/2 cup sugar
1 quart vinegar

Chop everything fine. Boil together 15 minutes.

It doesn't say but I would think at this point you would cool and serve.
