Yorkshire on Friday 19 July 2024
Then!
Yorkshire in history:
- 19 July 1761: John Wesley speaks at the first love-feast at Birstall
- 19 July 1849: As William Clarke’s All-England Eleven begins a match against a Hull 22, the local paper notes the failure of seaports to produce good cricketers
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)
