If the dampness of the Shipp should cause the Ginghams to spott (which suppose not, they being well Dyed) you may please to write with them to wash them in faire water and the spotts will not appeare. Otherwise it may bee they may bee esteemed not well Dyed or not know they will endure washing, as our reds will not." 35
