The Archbishop’s, or Double Mitre, is exceedingly pretty, and may be
folded from any serviette. First fold the linen in half, and lay it
flat on the table. Turn down six inches from the top. Fold down an inch
and a half of this at the edge, and fold that over again; the folds
forming an outside band like that shown in fig. 1, from A to B. Raise
the ends A and B in the hand, and form the point C, in fig. 2, allowing
the folds of the linen to overlap a little. Smooth it down flat,
without raising or moving it from the table; fold the lower end the
same, and bring it up to D E, in fig. 3. Turn the fold D E, down on the
right side, and make another point with it like that at C, in fig. 2,
but a little lower, so as to show the top point above it. Lastly, fold
up the lower edge F G, about an inch and a half, to form the band of
the Mitre. Bring the two ends F and G, round to the back, to make the
shape of a cap, and insert one in the other. If large enough, fit it
over the dinner roll. If not, set it on the table, and place the roll
upright in the hollow. The front should face the guest.
