Cook beans in ample water with the baking soda.
Simmer for 10 minutes.
Drain, and rinse.
Place the onion in the bottom of a 3-quart ovenproof casserole.
Add half the bacon or fatback.
Add the beans.
Top with the remaining bacon or fatback.
Mix together the sugar, molasses, mustard, salt, and pepper.
Pour this over the beans, and add enough water barely to cover.
Do not stir.
Bake, covered, at 300° for 6 hours.
After a couple of hours, stir and check beans.
You may have to add a bit of water now and then.
Don't make the beans too wet
