to initiate the shawls to perfection but
the patchOuly bothered them, as they
could find no substitute for it. and this
fact was used as the surest means @,
distinguishing the genuine India shawls
from the French cOunterfeits. At last
somebody discovered the secret and
brought quantity Of patchouly to
