Excerpt from George Topper's Black book which contained recipes, remedies and designs for the Long Gully property. (written as is)
RABBIT TAIL RUG
Made by me 1894
Rabbit Tails to start out 3443
Soaked and washed and preserved
in Alum water then washed and dried.
And tested, each bone flattened
with hammer and sewn on
with thread in sections
Black for outline white body.
