|
Represented
upon the humble petition of John Cullingworth of Follifoot. That on 10
December 1804, a sudden and terrible fire accidentally broke out upon the
premises of John Cullingworth, which in a short time, notwithstanding the
utmost endeavours of the said poor sufferer and his neighbours, consumed
416 yards of hay, twelve acres of corn and also a quantity of wood proper
for husbandry, by the oath of John Simpson, Thomas Pick and John Pulleine,
three of the most substantial inhabitants of the town of Follifoot, who
made a moderate estimate of the loss amounting to £306 and upwards, by
which shocking accident the said John Cullingworth and his wife and seven
children are reduced to extreme want and poverty. Collection throughout
England, Berwick-upon-Tweed, and Denbigh, Flint and Radnor, and house to
house throughout the counties of York, Cumberland, Northumberland,
Westmorland, Durham, Derby, Nottingham, Lincoln, Chester and Lancaster.
