carpetbag

A traveller got out with his carpetbag in his hand, and was shown into the sanded parlour.

And before a hand could be raised to prevent him, he had emptied the contents of the carpetbag upon the table.

In one hour from that time they had packed a box and a carpetbag, and were on their way to a railway station.

We'll be likely to need thread, buttons, and some patches for our clothes, though I've got a supply in my carpetbag.
