From the Project Gutenberg version of Exercises in Knitting by Cornelia Mee.

The first 4 rounds should be worked a total of 23 times. (32 times - 9 times in the instep area = 23)
The toe (starting with round 5, the decrease round) should be worked with doubled yarn.
The toe shaping will be familiar to many sock knitters: decrease every other round until half the stitches remain, then decrease every round. Once you're down to 60 sts total, "Cast off, and fasten the thread."
