Transcriber's Note:

Obvious punctuation errors have been corrected.

Inconsistent hyphenation in the original has been preserved, e.g.
cutwork, cut-work; hand-made, handmade; lace-workers, laceworkers;
may-flower, mayflower; needle-craft, needlecraft; needle-point,
needlepoint; salerooms, sale-rooms; semi-circular, semicircular.

Inconsistent use of accents has been preserved, e.g. applique, applique;
reseau, reseau; toile, toile.

In the Index, Pierpoint was corrected to Pierpont to match the body of
the text.

The main body of the text refers to the "Hockon collection", which is
referred to in the index as the "Hoechon collection". It is unclear which
of these is correct so they have been preserved as they appear in the
original.
