    About 60 years ago there were spinning wheels used in this district. My father makes clothes of every kind and description. Coats suits, riding breeches. His ancestors were also tailors.
    They were old in the trade in '98.
    In this district people wear black diamonds on their arms or black bands when any on dies belonging to them.
