- (continued from previous page)The people would buy a piece by the yard and the trimmings. There were other tailors going around they were not able to cut out clothes but they were able to rip faded clothes and mend them. The children used to love to see them coming. They used to be telling stories about the fairy forts. They used to be singing. They were great for telling stories. There was one tailor and all the people in this district used to wait until he would come.
