I have the recipe for Mrs. Edgar's buttemilk cake............It's from an
old Meta Given cook book.

4 1/3 cups cake flour
1 3/4 cups butter
3 1/3 cups sugar
8 eggs
1/4 teas. baking soda
1 tbls. vanilla
1/2 cup buttermilk

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease one 9 or 10 inch
tube pan. Mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. In a
large bowl, beat butter with sugar. Mix in the eggs, one at time, beating
well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. Gently mix in flour
mixture alternately with the buttermilk. Pour batter into the prepared
pan. Bake in preheated oven for 55 minutes. When cake begins to pull away
from the side of the pan it is done. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then
turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.
