Clothing Material (Other) 10s External Paid Mrs: Emmett for making Points &c Perhaps the type of "Points" defined thus in OED : "Thread lace made wholly with a needle; (more generally) any lace, esp. pillow lace, imitating that made with a needle. Formerly also: † a piece of such lace (obsolete)." This definition may dovetail with that given in Johnson's Dictionary (1755): "A string with a tag", which Johnson's examples show to be a kind of ribbon, sometimes made of lace.
