1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and celery; cook 3 to 5 minutes, until soft. Transfer to a large bowl; stir in bread, salt, pepper and sage.
2. Drain oysters through a large strainer over a 1 quart glass measure; transfer oysters to a bowl. Strain oyster liquid through a fine sieve into a separate bowl; set aside.
