Linens and lawns are counted on the one side, warp and 

 weft. For example, a 20 00 should (with forty-nine hanks of 

 weft) count in warp twenty threads, and in weft twenty, and 

 in some places twenty-one sJiots under a linen glass. 



The above being an example of the cost of making three- 

 fourths wide lawns, I shall here add the scale for making, 

 which will be found useful and correct.
