Default removing 3 way light switch

I'd like to remove a 3 way light switch. I don't want a switch there and
just want to restore a permanent circuit along the hot and neutral wires.
What wires do I need to connect in order to do this?

I was able to use Jack's directions to remove a 3 way switch, my situation was resolved by the following. Thanks Jack for posting that excellant response

If the hot box is the one you want to get rid of, then connect the black
wire to the red wire in the hot box. Cap the black wire that isn't hot. In
the other box, the red wire is now hot. Put the red wire on one screw of
the single-poll switch, and the black wire on the other screw. This should
account for all of the wires.
