Fender needed an overcoat because it was so cold in the warehouse in which he worked, so he 'bespoke' one of Morry, the tailor. Not, of course, that it was quite as simple as that. The 'bespeaking' took a little time because Fender, was poor and already had one overcoat, made by Morry some twenty years ago. Could it not be repaired? he asked, but though Morry exulted in its quality ("I use a lovely lining; someone else would make a wedding dress from it, such a lining I use"), the coat had gone beyond repair. So a new one it had to be; there is some slight haggling over price and then it is truly 'bespoken'. Work on it begins, but will it be finished in time?
