There is nothing more prosaic than
a rope. or that enters into a greater
number Of homely occupations: and
yet in the march of ~labor-saving in

one of the last On the list. So long.
indeed, did ~rope-making remain one

the place where the work was done
has become ingrained in popular
speech; and the rope factory. though
in no way meriting the appellation. is
still known in some quarters as the

worthy of note that the government
