THE origin OF weights and meas
urcs was derived from of grain Of
wheat. According to the old statute,
thirty-two grains, well dried and
gathered from the middle Of the ear,
were to make one pennyweight, TWEEN
ty pennyweigbts one ounce. Itwas
afterward thought better to devide
the pennyweight into twenty-four
equal parts, called grains. William
the COnqueror introduced into Eng
land what was called Troy Weight,
from Troyes, atown in the province
of Champagne, in France. The Eng
ish were dissatisfied with this weight,
because the pound did not weigh SO
much as the pound in use at that
time in England. Hence arose the
term AoOir oiu pods, which was a
medium between the French and
the ancient English weights.
