PLEASE NOTE: I suggest that when reading this document that you substitute the term "frock" for the words "smock" and "hunting shirt". I am not aware that the term smock was used for this particular garment in the early to mid 18th century, and the term hunting shirt is misleading, as it is not a shirt. A shirt is "underwear". Also the term hunting shirt is often given to the later revolutionary war fringed open fronted frock.
