    There is but one tailor in this parish. He mends clothes and makes clothes.
    When a person wants a new suit of clothes he goes to the tailor. When he reaches the tailor-shop he chooses a piece of cloth. Then the tailor takes his measure and he marks out the suit. Then he cuts out the suit and [?] it. After a few days the man who is getting the suit made returns to the tailor he fits the suit on the other man. Then he sews the suit.
