I was looking through the November 1799 "Lady's Monthly Museum" for  
something else, and came across this:
 
"To take Mildew out of Linen.  Take soap, and rub it very well; then  scrape 
some fine chalk, and rub that also in the linen: lay it on the grass; as  it 
dries, wet it a little.  It will come out at twice doing."
