For cobbler crust, in a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Cut in shortening till mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually pour in water and blend to form a dough. Divide into two portions of one-third and two-thirds.

3.
In a large bowl, stir together the 1 1/2 cups sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir in peaches and berries. Transfer to pastry-lined baking dish. Dot with butter or margarine.
4.
Roll remaining pastry into a 9x8-inch rectangle. Cut into eight 1-inch-wide strips. Arrange over raspberries in a lattice. Trim to fit dish or tuck under bottom pastry.
5.
Mix the yolk with the milk. Brush the mixture over pastry. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar.
6.
Place on a baking sheet. Bake in a 375-F oven for about 60 minutes or till crust browns, and filling is bubbly. Serve warm with cream or ice cream.
