to make a seam. leaving it, open nine

slant the neck in the front to match.
Trim this with galloons. embroidery, etc,
taking the trimming down the front edges.
and close with handsome buttons.
Stitch the pinned seams and trim the
openings with the chosen decoration
These Sits are for the hands to slip
through. Cut lining and interlining the
same size as the outside and turn in the
edges neatly. More trimming may follow

agreed to recommend his release to

him, then his pardon shall be re-
voked.
