Add the butter, lemon juice and grated rind. Pour into a baked pie crust. Beat the egg whites. Add vanilla and cream of tartar; beat until soft peaks form. Add 6 tablespoons sugar; beat until stiff peaks form. Put on filling, being careful to seal the meringue onto the edge of crust to prevent shrinking and weeping.
