Josiah and his brother Thomas gave their friend Samuel Taylor Coleridge a life annuity of £150, with the goal of freeing Coleridge from financial worries and the need to support himself by noncreative work, so that he could pursue his literary and philosophical interests.

In 1807, Wedgwood bought Maer Hall in Staffordshire and his family lived there until his death in 1843.

Wedgwood was responsible for the Wedgwood Company's first bone china wares.
1729 English cricket season
There are signs of increasing media interest in the 1729 English cricket season as reports of seven matches have survived, compared with four in each of the two previous years.

Although the source information is confusing, Sir William Gage's XI achieved the earliest known innings victory when they defeated Edwin Stead's XI at Penshurst Park in August. The best of the known professional players at this time was the all-rounder Thomas Waymark, who was a groom employed by the 2nd Duke of Richmond.

Cricket continued to spread throughout England, and is known to have reached both Gloucestershire and Norfolk in 1729; also, its popularity at the University of Oxford was attested by Dr Samuel Johnson, a student there at the time. The oldest known bat, now on display in the Kennington Oval pavilion, is dated 1729.

Dwarf (folklore)
A dwarf (pl. dwarfs or dwarves) is a type of supernatural short human-shaped being in Germanic folklore. Accounts of dwarfs vary significantly throughout history. They are commonly, but not exclusively, presented as living in mountains or stones and being skilled craftsmen. In early literary sources, only males are explicitly referred to as dwarfs. However, they are described as having sisters and daughters, while male and female dwarfs feature in later saga literature and folklore. Dwarfs are sometimes described as short; however, scholars have noted that this is neither explicit, nor relevant to their roles in the earliest sources.

Dwarfs continue to feature in modern popular culture, such as in the works of J. R. R. Tolkien and Terry Pratchett, where they are often, but not exclusively, presented as distinct from elves.

Drop box (weaving device)
In weaving, a drop box or dropbox is a housing for a shuttle, invented in 1759 or 1760 by Robert Kay (1727-1802) in Bury, Lancashire. The box sits beside a loom and allows one to rapidly switch between two shuttles with bobbins, usually of different colors, making it easier and quicker to weave multiple colors for figured fabrics or striped wefts without stopping to manually change shuttles.

The drop box consists of a partitioned lift mechanism at one end of the loom, of which any section can be lowered to the working height of the loom so that the shuttle can be loaded.

Whilst the drop box made weaving equipment significantly more complex and expensive, it made the process much faster and contributed to a greater uptake of the flying shuttle which was invented by Robert Kay's father John Kay. The drop box was never patented.

Shuttle (weaving)
A shuttle is a tool designed to neatly and compactly store a holder that carries the thread of the weft yarn while weaving with a loom. Shuttles are thrown or passed back and forth through the shed, between the yarn threads of the warp in order to weave in the weft.

The simplest shuttles, known as "stick shuttles", are made from a flat, narrow piece of wood with notches on the ends to hold the weft yarn. More complicated shuttles incorporate bobbins or pirns.

In the United States, shuttles are often made of wood from the flowering dogwood, because it is hard, resists splintering, and can be polished to a very smooth finish. In the United Kingdom shuttles were usually made of boxwood, cornel, or persimmon.

Wadjetrenput
Wadjetrenput was an ancient Egyptian official with the title of a high steward. He was in office under the ruling queen Hatshepsut (ruled about 1473 to 1458). Wadjetrenput is known from several inscriptions, but none of them are dated, making it hard to provide an exact chronological position for the high official within the reign of the queen. He appears on an ostracon found at Deir el-Bahari also naming the official Senenmut. The latter is well known from the reign of the queen, providing evidence that he also lived in her times. He appears in a rock inscription in southern Egypt, near Aswan. The inscription mentions Hatshepsut and king Thutmose III, providing evidence that the queen sent him on mission to quarry stones (the region around Aswan is famous for its stone quarries). On so called name stones he also appears with the title overseer of works in the Amun temple.

Senenmut
Senenmut (Ancient Egyptian: sn-n-mwt, sometimes spelled Senmut, Senemut, or Senmout) was an 18th Dynasty ancient Egyptian architect and government official. His name means "brother of Mut", but can also translate literally as "brother of the mother"; i.e. "uncle".
