No other reasons can be given, than those which have been assigned, why Quaker-women should have been found in the use of a colour, which is so unlike any other which they now use in their dress.
But even this fashion is not universal, and seems rather now on the decline. The American Quaker, on the other hand, has generally kept to the round hat. Black hoods were uniformly worn by the Quaker-women, but the use of these is much less than it was, and is still decreasing. The Green aprons also were worn by the females, but they are now wholly out of use.
But the same reason, which thus operates with Quaker-men in the choice of Quaker-women, operates with men who are not of the society, in choosing them also for their wives. These are often no strangers to the good education, and to the high character, of the Quaker-females.
Customs at and after meals Quakers never drink healths at dinner nor toasts after dinner the drinking of toasts a heathen custom interrupts often the innocence and leads to the intoxication of the company anecdote of Judge Hale Quakers sometimes in embarrassing situations on account of this omission Quaker-women seldom retire after dinner, and leave the men drinking Quakers a sober people.
