- There is a tailor in my district. He works in his own home. He never travels from house to house. He stocks cloth. Long ago cloth was spun and woven in my district but cloth is not spun or woven there now.
The implements or gear which the tailor uses are, a sewing machine, a scissors, thread, a needle, a board and an iron. He sews with the sewing machine, he cuts the cloth with the scissors. He also sews with the needle.
He puts the cloth on the board when he is sewing it. He irons the cloth with the iron. He puts the thread in the needle when he is sewing the cloth.
It is an old custom in my district to wear black clothes when any of your relations are dead.- Informant
