TAYLOURS AND SMYTHS.
The, Were the Commoneat Trades
In the Thirteenth Century.
The manufacture of leather in the
thirteenth century seems to have been
important, showing that leather jerkins
and breeches were commonly worn. We
have 19 skynners. 40 barkars, 6 sad
delers, 3 cordeweners, 167 soutera,
(shoemakers) and 8 glovers. The sur
name fenster is a trade name denoting
a maker of pock saddles.
The commonest trades are taylour and
srnyth, since one lived in almost every
village. The taylours number 407, of
whom 14(> are called by the Latin name
of cissor. In addition to 261 smyths,
several are specialized. There are two
arnsmyths. three lokeamytha, three
goldsmyths, five fferonrs (shoeing
smiths) and six marshalls (farriers).
The wryght wrought both in wood
and metal. The number catalogued is
186, of whom 81 are called by the Latin
name faU>r (French favre), one of the
few cases in which the Latin transla
tion of a trade name has become a com-,
mon surname. The wryghts’ trade, like
that of the smyths, was specialized.
The arkwryght made the great arks or
chests in which the clothes or meal
were stored, and we find a plowwryght,
a wheclwryght, two shippewryghts, 11
cartwryghts-and two glasswryghts (gla
ziers), who were probably concerned
with the windows of churches. Glass
windows in houses were rare, as is still
the case in Sicily or Egypt.
The bakesters are few (15), suggesting
that families baked their own bread

LAND POOR.
A Scheme to Give Every Man a
Farm, by a Person Who is
Land Poor.
Mr. Editor : Some years ago I took an
idea that land was the safest investment
that a man could make in Georgia, and as
a consequence, I am now land poor; have
more than I can profitably make use of,
and consequently want to get rid of some,
or all of it, and I have decided to adopt
the following measure to get rid of it:
I will say,in the first place, that the
land is tbe best in Monroe county, is fine
ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat
tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best tor
cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains
in the county. There are a number of
tenant houses on the place, and a home
recently built that cost me over $3,000 to
build. The land, in the first place, cost
me from $25 down to $4 per acre—saying
altogether, about $lO per acre, without
improvements ; and to get rid of it, I will
average the whole place at $lO per acre,
in the following way : I will have the
entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into
50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more
than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and
less than 50 to another, according to his
ability to pay for it, as the case may be,
the entire quantity to be drawn for.
In other words, the number of lots and
quantity of land to be put in a hut or box,
and drawn out under approval of a com
mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time,
so that all shall have a fair chance to get a
home at a low price, and no one has a
chance of losing their m tney, or failing to
get their value, as paid, and some get a
farm at far less than cost
The land is 12 miles so m Macon, a city
of some 50,i ;t.tO or 60,000 people, and is
adapted to maiket gardening, and for
northern people who know how to work,
it offers a fine opportunity for a colony of
energetic citizens.
It is all together, and would make a fine
settlement, having the best of pastures,
water, springs, creeks, etc. Tbe land is
timbered with hickory, beach, oak and
pine, and some cedar; in fact, it is the best
place I know of, and I am satisfied the ed
itor of the Call will vouch for what I
tay.
I would be glad to have any parties who
mean business, to go over the plantation,
familiarize themselves with the advan
tages, arid communicate with me at
Barnesville, before going into the matter,
assuring them that I mean what I say.
I have also a farm of 50 acres near
Barnc-ville ior sale, >n good terms.
In ; I iiti 'ii to the terms < tiered a’:> >V'.. I
have c nclude l to make the terms of pay
ment in four annual payments without j
interest, which is tantamount to putting j
the price of the land very low, The |
titles to the land Lave been in the posses- |
sion ol one or two parties for years, and :
have never been questioned an 1 are as ,
