Fig. 87] Fig. 88 Scaffold hitch Fig. 89 ample size so that when placed over the end of the scaffold plaiik it will hang loosely below it, as in Fig. 87. Draw to the left the rope in the left hand in Fig. 87, and to the right the rope in the right hand in the same figure, thus gaining the position shown in Fig. 88. Turn the plank over, draw the ropes up above it, join the short end to the long rope by an over- hand bowline (Fig. 138), pull the bowline tight, at the same time adjusting the length of the two ropes so that they hold the plank level, and the hitch is finished as shown in Fig. 89. Attach a second rope to the other end of the plank in the same way and the scaffold is ready. Miller's knot.—This knot is especially adapted to tying up grain and flour sacks; it is also useful in place of a clove hitch in fastening a rope to an object whose ends cannot be reached, such as a post in a bam. Take a tound turn about the neck of the sack or the fixcdobject, crossing the ropes in doing so, as shown in Fig. 90. Raise the main rope just above the crossing, pass the free end under, as in Fig. 91, and draw up tightly (Fig. 92). This hitch may be loosened by.
