   At present there are no tailors in this district. About forty years ago there was one whose name was Mr. Sutton. He worked at his home but he did not stock the material. Once while he was making a suit of clothes for a police man - he disappointed him so often that the police man asked him "Did a tailor ever go to heaven."? The tailor said "There did one and they called for a police man to put him out and they could not find one."
   Black is worn for twelve months after the death of a relative.
