page_text: LETTERS PATENT to Isaac Pariente, of Manchester, in the County of
Lancaster, Merchant, for the Invention of "CERTAIN IMPROVEMENTS IN SCARFS
AND IN THE MANUFACTURE OF THE SAME.'-A communication from abroad
PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION left by the said Isaac Pariente at the
Office of the Commissioners of Patents, with his Petition, on the 22nd
February 1865.
I, ISAAC PARIENTE, of Manchester, in the County of Lancaster, Merchant,
do hereby declare the nature of the said Invention for "CERTAIN IMPROVEMENTS
IN SCARFS, AND IN THE MANUFACTURE OF THE SAME," being a communication
to me from abroad by Leon de Moses Pariente, of Grand Cairo, Egypt, to be
as follows:-
The Invention relates to the description of scarf principally worn in Turkey
and Eastern countries, usually made of fine woollen warp and weft, and woven
plain.
The improvements consist in manufacturing the said scarfs with worsted

page_text: warp and fine wool weft, and in weaving the middle portion of the scarf in
the method known as "diagonal," and weaving the extremities or ends double
or "herring-bone twill," by which means the production of these scarfs is
rendered less costly. The sides may either be left plain or "faced" as it is
termed, with a colored stripe or border.
SPECIFICATION in pursuance of the conditions of the Letters Patent, filed
by the said Isaac Pariente in the Great Seal Patent Office on
the 31st May 1865.
TO ALL TO WHOM THESE PRESENTS SHALL COME, I, ISAAC
PARIENTE, of Manchester, in the County of Lancaster, Merchant, send

the said Isaac Pariente, Her special license that the said Isaac Pariente,
my executors, administrators, and assigns, or such others as I, the said
Isaac Pariente, my executors, administrators, and assigns, should at any
time agree with, and no others, from time to time and at all times there-
after during the term therein expressed, should and lawfully might make,
use, exercise, and vend, within the United Kingdom of Great Britain and
Ireland, the Channel Islands, and Isle of Man, an Invention for "CERTAIN
IMPROVEMENTS IN SCARFS, AND IN THE MANUFACTURE OF THE SAME," being a com-
munication to me from abroad by Leon de Moses Pariente, of Grand Cairo,
Egypt, upon the condition (amongst others) that I, the said Isaac Pariente,
my executors or administrators, by an instrument in writing under my, or their,
or one of their hands and seals, should particularly describe and ascertain the
nature of the said Invention, and in what manner the same was to be per-
formed, and cause the same to be filed in the Great Seal Patent Office within
six calendar months next and immediately after the date of the said Letters
Patent.
NOW KNOW YE, that I, the said Isaac Pariente, do hereby declare
the nature of the said Invention, and in what manner the same is to be per-
formed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement (that is to say):-
The Invention relates to the description of scarf principally worn in

page_text: Africa, Turkey, and other Eastern countries, usually made of fine soft, worsted
warp and woollen weft, and woven as an open single-twilled cloth.
The improvements consist in manufacturing the said scarfs with worsted
warp hard twisted and fine wool weft, and in the weaving the body or the
middle portion of the scarf is to be woven in a close fine bold twill in the
method known as "diagonal," the said twill to be thrown up on both sides
of the cloth, and the borders or side extremities of the scarf are to be woven
double, with twill stripes or "herring-bone twill" by which means the scarfs
are rendered more durable.
The ends of the scarf may either be left plain or "faced" as it is
termed, with colored stripes or borders, and to be made with fringes at both
ends.
In witness whereof, I, the said Isaac Pariente, have hereunto set my hand
and seal, this Twenty-sixth day of May, in the year of our Lord One
thousand eight hundred and sixty-five.
ISAAC PARIENTE. (L.S.)
