Editorial note — THE GIPSIES. [Footnote 174]

[Footnote 178: Bright, on the Spanish gipsies, says: "Widows never marry again, and are distinguished by mourning-veils, and black shoes made like those of a man; no slight mortification, in a country where the females are so remarkable for the beauty of their feet." It is most likely that divorced female gipsies are confounded here with widows. --Ed.]
