"World's largest" edit

An IP keeps changing the lead to read that the company "was to become the world's largest textile business." This may or may not have been the case but the source cited in the main text (ODNB) refers to it "becoming the country's biggest manufacturer of mourning crape". If it really was the world's largest textile business that's a strong claim and it needs a separate citation. Dormskirk (talk) 16:10, 9 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
