    There are two tailors in this district and there names are Mr Henry and Mr Reynolds. These tailors work in their homes. These tailors do not stock the cloth. They send away to the shops for the material. These tailors use tweed and brown material.
    The tailor uses a needle, thread, a thimble, a machine, and chalk when he is working. When the tailor is working he sits on a big table with his legs crossed.
    The socks and stockings are knitted in nearly every home in the district.
