Descrizione:

This was a spelling of ‘endurance’ and the name given to a durable kind of fabric. It occurs in the unpublished will of Janet Fraunce of Booth in Slaithwaite: 1585 <i>a new fryse petticott of read color and haith a bodie of indurance: to Dorothie Dysone an aperon of induraunce</i> (IMF). The OED has a similar reference under the heading ‘durance’. It can be compared with the word ‘lasting’ used of a thin durable fabric, first recorded in 1782 (OED).
