Description

J. Howlett (Gt. Dunnow) to Richd. How II (Aspley) Many have objected that the introduction of piece work has invalidated his conclusions on labourers' wages, but he demonstrates his own method of calculating for his own parish, which takes into account piece work & still shews that wages are below the cost of living. Requests How's comments re. Aspley Guise - Has a Sunday School at Dunmow.
