They wore snowy white gloves, and silk hats
with cocka,ies of black feathers, which were
fastened TO the hats with large buttons of sill

pants, l believe--after the style of Osca-

were generally of a yellow color, had a row
of glitterinS buttons down each leg, and
fitted SO tightly that they seemed to me to

They seemed never to speak word or to

a good deal. On the contrary, they left all
the soemnity and dignity to be used by
