and worn with silk skirts, trimmed with two
killings, edged with Valenciennes lace. The
ioulard tunic is draped at the side with a
boui.H >nne, bordered with lace. The yoke

lresses have the yoke piece made entirely of
JdNenetian point, mounted on silk,a band OF
Tenetan point at the side OF the tunic, and
'eyers of point at the side of the tunic, and
'eyers of point on the sleeves; others are
decorated with colored embroidery worked on
bread net of very strong manufacture. Eng
