Mealy

Below the hole the mice made in the woodwork was a pile of mealy sawdust.

That it is a cross-breed there can be no doubt, from the fact that after a year or two the brilliant colours, both orange and black, begin to fade—the orange fading into a mealy tint, and the black to a dingy grey.

I know not, indeed, if the artist could give the beautiful orange which distinguish ^([sic]) the jonque, or the mellowness of tint that pervades the mealy.

The clear Norwich canaries, as well as the evenly marked, the crested, the ticked, the green, and the unevenly marked, are each divided into two separate classes, i.e., jonques and mealies.
