ALT Transcription of cutting pasted on paper : Washing in 1705 They put their cloaths with a litle cows dung into a large tubb of water, and then plucking their pettycoats up to their bellyes, get into the Tubb, and dance about it to tread the cloaths, instead of washing them with their hands, and this the women doe in the open streets, without any manner of shame or modesty. From J Taylor, Journey into Edenborough
