The Osicestry Advertizer asserts that a lady of considerable property,

Miss Lloyd, of Laques, has served notices of eject- ment on all her tenants in two counties, because their wives and daughters will wear crinolines, which Miss Lloyd disapproves. Miss Lloyd has not, however, ordered that all her tenants shall wear the family livery, or that their daughters shall put on mob- caps and aprons, and her decree, therefore, must be considered a very moderate exertion of the rights of property. One of the Earls of Crawford centuries ago once ordered that none of his tenants' wives and daughters should wear anything at all, and was obeyed—as Miss Lloyd will be by her new farmers. Feudalism is slow to change.
