Clothing the individual, household, and family Part 3
Another key difference between the accounts of Sarah Mellish and those of Dorothy Chambers is that Mellish’s expenditure was overwhelmingly dedicated to her own clothing, while Chambers frequently spent more money on clothing for other people in her family and household.
