table napkin

With a shout of laughter Dr. Bird ducked behind the cover of his table-napkin.

At this point Mr. Davenant Carter came to the door with his table-napkin in his hand.

Mr. Andrewes saw this, however, and wanted to fasten a table-napkin round me, to which I objected.

He was not sure if he was expected to address the ladies, and he was still less certain about the table-napkin.
