Yorkshire on Friday 14 June 2024
Then!
Yorkshire in history:
- 14 June 1773: Parliament belatedly awards John Harrison part of the prize due to him for inventing the marine chronometer
- 14 June 1876: Thomas Pridgin Teale’s family encounters a rabid dog in Headingley
Proverbially:
Dean’t o’ Friday buy your ring,
O’ Friday dean’t put t’ spurrins [banns] in;
Dean’t wed o’ Friday. Think on o’ this,
Nowther blue nor green mun match her driss.
(Moorman 1916)
