Yorkshire on Monday 15 January 2024
Then!
Yorkshire in history:
- 15 January 1685: John Reresby, governor of York, refuses to help exempt Sheffield cutlers from the hearth tax because of insufficient rewards for past favours
- 15 January 1812: The Leeds authorities foil the first Luddite attack in Yorkshire – at Sheepscar
- 15 January 1873: Mr Fairest details the historical embezzlement and misdirection of charity funds in Ecclesfield (Sheffield), until the audience can take no more
Proverbially:
Munday flitte
Neaver sitte.
(Best 1857)
