| Description | [When in Ireland I saw a manufactory of Damask table linen and napkins, at Lisburn near Belfast, where some 100 workmen are employed. They had just finished a set for the Prince of Wales, with his Arms in the centre and a Plume of feathers at the corners. They are just beginning a set for the Duke of Bedford. The bleaching is done in the old way by laying on the Grass.] |
