Dornick \Dor"nick\, or Dornock \Dor"nock\, n.
   A coarse sort of damask, originally made at Tournay (in
   Flemish, Doornick), Belgium, and used for hangings, carpets,
   etc. Also, a stout figured linen manufactured in Scotland.

   --Halliwell. --Jamieson.

   Note: Ure says that dornock, a kind of stout figured linen,
         derives its name from a town in Scotland where it was
         first manufactured for tablecloths.
