Remove crusts from bread; set crusts aside for another use. Cover

inch cubes (should have about 9 cups). In a bowl fold bread into

Drain raisins and cherries, reserving sherry. Arrange one-fourth of
cherries in bottom of the mold; sprinkle 1/3 c. raisins into the

Tablespoons reserved sherry. Repeat layers three times, arranging
cherries and raisins near edges of the mold. Lightly press last layer

minutes. Carefully unmold pudding onto a serving platter. Serve warm
