Brief Lives, Vol. 2

He was a poore-man, but Sir Hugh Middleton[2], alderman of London, moneyed the businesse; undertooke it; and gott the profit and also the credit of that most usefull invention, for which there[3] ought to have been erected a statue for the memory of this poore-man from the city of London.From my honoured and learned friend Mr. Fabian Philips, filiser of London, etc., who was in commission about this water. [A] In MS. Aubr. 6, fol. 1v, Aubrey has this note:'In Pond's Almanack, 1647, thus"Since the river from Ware to London began by Edward Pond, Jan. 2, 35 yeares. 'Twas finished, Sept. 20, 34 yeares".' [4]At Doctors Commons is 'argent on gules a mayd stark naked with a chaplet in her hand dexter.' The name I could never learn, till by chance, in Hampshire, by a courtier.

Borne at Barkehamsted, Hertfordshire; where he built [Pg 2]a free-schole, where this coat is in severall places. 'Tis endowed with 500li. per annum for 120 scholars from any part of England. The Visitor is the Warden of All Soules, Oxon. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
