“Black stocks, besides having a more soldierly appearance than white ones, are a saving to the men in point of washing, and do not shew the dirt of a shirt, so much, after a day 's wear: two will be necessary for each man; one of horse-hair for common use; the other of Manchester velvet for dress… the ends for the clasps to fix in, are best of leather, as that will last while the stocks do.”
-Cuthbertson's System, for the Complete Interior Management and Œconomy of a Battalion of Infantry.
