Mephisto 10D Shoulder Pad, Loaded Sort, Kept On Carriers Back -O-Ter-K-Ot(2 Words)

[magistra]

anagram of sort kept on +r? This would give porters knot, but can't find this in Chambers.25a Welcome Guy picked up for harvest implements Hayforks? I can see "forks" = Fawkes, but why does "hay"=welcome?

A porter's knot is a double shoulder pad. Just type it in and you'll get the definition.

'Porter's knot' is listed in Chambers under 'knot'; the homophone in 25a is "Hey Fawkes".
