Preheat oven to 375F. Grease a loaf pan and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together shortening and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in lemon rind.
In another bowl, sift flour, baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture alternately with milk to the creamed butter mixture.
