rb. I..t al the Run..

In 1862 the rage for ruffs, such as are
seen on many monumental etfisies, be
gan to decline. A writer in the Lon
don Chronicle Of that year says OF gen
tlemens dress, ''Their cuffs entirely
cover their wrists, and only the edges
of their rutiies are to be SEEN"
It is said that distaste for rurs
was first created so far back as 1913,
when a woman named Turner wore
them on her trial for the murder by
poison of Sir Thomas Overbury. The
French revolution Of 1889 much intlu-
enced British fashion. and the pictur-
esaue cooked hat and ruifles then gave
way generally to round hats and small
cuffs
The period of their final disuse can
not be easily determined. as men OF old
fashioned or eccentric habits have
worn rult1ed shirt fronts within quite
recent memory similar to those which,
according to Planche's History Of
British Costume" originated in the
seventeenth century.
