Also displayed is a red broche shawl which was bought in New York in 1839 and was brought across the plains in 1850. A black triangular lace shawl has the same history, and was also worn by Miss Walton’s mother. A beautiful and interesting ob ject is a blue and white coverlet woven by Mrs. Field’s grandfather in 1830 on a double hand loom. Woven into one corner are the names of “Phebe,” the daughter for whom it was made, and “Scipio” (New York state) the location and the date.
