1498.—“After two days had passed he (the Catual \[Cotwal\]) came to the factory in an \*andor\* which men carried on their shoulders, and these (\*andors\*) consist of great canes which are bent overhead and arched, and from these are hung certain cloths of a half fathom wide, and a fathom and a half long, and at the ends are pieces of wood to bear the cloth which hangs from the cane; and laid over the cloth there is a great mattrass of the same size, and this all made of silk-stuff wrought with gold-thread, and with many decorations and fringes and tassels; whilst the ends of the cane are mounted with silver, all very gorgeous, and rich, like the lords who travel so."—\*Correa\*, i. 102.
