 "...and
so nearer we came to Halifax we found the houses thicker and
the villages greater...if we knocked at the door of any of
the master manufacturers we presently saw a house full of lusty
fellows, some at the dye vat, some dressing the cloth, some
in the loom." Daniel Defoe 1724
"These
people are full of business, not a beggar not an idle person
to be seen. This business is the clothing trade." Daniel Defoe 1724
