Interesting.
The demo timeframe is July 1998 and bandages do weigh 1 stone there. A much later patch note (in UO:R) makes light of the fact that the cloth:bandage weight has been fixed. At that point, it seems like bandages weighing 1 stone each was a bug rather than intended feature and would be silly to keep.
I will change cloth/bandages to be 0.1 stones with the next patch (some time this weekend). This means cloth keeps a consistent weight ratio from Bolt -> Yards -> Bandages
