"Her bonnet, which had been thrown off with the rest of her things, was found by Colonel Brandon, and carefully placed on a chair beside her."~~~Jane Austen: Sense and Sensibility 

"WHEN CHRISTIANITY WAS ABOUT TWELVE HUNDRED YEARS old, religious leaders sought a tighter structuring of holy orders, and in 1209 the Italian Francis of Assisi started what became the Franciscans, an order of subtle appeal. It stressed celibacy, poverty, profound devotion and a love of humanity. Its members, like all members of the mendicant orders, were known as friars and they did not live in fixed abodes or monasteries; they traveled endlessly, built missions, performed good deeds, and provided examples of humility."~~~James A. Michener: TEXAS. Ch 2 The Mission
