Reng. Rengan. "The first drawing on the white material with melted wax in a "chanting" to give the outlines of the design." II. Terusan showing reverse drawing & dyeing III. Tembokan "The spaces in the design which have to be white are covered with wax." IV. Tjelepan or Wedelan "The basic color dark blue is applied by soaking the painted material in wedel which is a vegetable color made of the leaves of the "indigo" plant."V. Kelengan or Lorodan cleaning by boiling in water also 'ngerak' the alternative process VI. Riningan or Biron covering spaces with wax or not if 'ngerak' process VII Sogan "The result after the dying process with soga the brown color made of the "bark" of various mentioned plants VIII Babara Satria Manah "The last process on the material by boiling in water and by scraping out the wax"; each example also has a numbered & typed strip of white cloth sewn-on identifying the piece with the last finished example noting "Made by Mrs. Sudirman Banjurmas"; the final panel noting "Presented by Virginia F.

In 1933 he entered into partnership with his brother Joseph and in November 1945 Henri Kummerman arrived on the Tyne for his first meeting with the MacGregors.
