Yorkshire in history:
- 26 September 1810: Anthony Brown of Bowling (Bradford) is detained for swindling the Otley parents of Wellington’s men

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)
