Thomas Crawford's Diary, 1825
“The Ladies & Gentlemen dress very extravagantly”
Entry for 10/10/1825
Monday 10th. Went on shore and after walking about the town took a short ride on Mr. Walkinshaw’s horse. The price of washing my trousers was very moderate being only one shilling for a couple pairs of tousers. The Ladies & Gentlemen dress very extravagantly here; they have very handsome dresses.
