Escalloped Oysters

This was a favorite holiday dish my Mother used to make. Then, I started making it for my in laws when we would visit them at holiday time. They LOVED them! I hope you will too!
1 quart oysters ( type, not specified)
1/4 pound butter melted.
6 cups bread, cubed
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup oyster juice
2 Tablespoons sherry
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons salt

Drain oysters and remove pieces of shells. Reserve the juice. Pour butter over bread cubes. Place 1/3 of bread in bottom of a buttered 3-cup casserole, then half of the oysters, a layer of bread  alternating bread, oysters ending with bread.
Mix milk, oyster juice, sherry, Worcestershire sauce and salt together. Pour over all. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or till firm and golden. Serves 8
