A GLOSSARY OF WORDS USED IN THE DIALECT OF CHESHIRE FOUNDED ON A SIMILAR ATTEMPT BY ROGER WILBRAHAM, F.R.S. and F.S.A, Contributed to the Society of Antiquaries in iSiy. BY LIEUT.-COL. EGERTON LEIGH, M.P. II LONDON : HAMILTON, ADAMS, AND CO. CHESTER : MINSHULL AND HUGHES. 1877. LONDON : CLAY, SONS, AND TAYLOR, PRINTERS, » ,•*• EREA2) STH4iaT^JIIJ:-L,; • 'r^UKEN, V?eTO«IVS«"gBI?t- DEDICATION. I DEDICATE this GLOSSARY OF Cheshijie Words to my friends in Mid-Cheshire, and believe, with some pleasure, that these Dialectical Fragments of our old County may now have a chance of not vanishing entirely, amid changes which are rapidly sweeping away the past, and in many cases obliterating words for which there is no substitute, or which are often, with us, better expressed by a single word than elsewhere by a sentence. EGERTON LEIGH. M24873 PRELIMINARY OBSERVATIONS ATTACHED TO WILBRAHAM'S "CHESHIRE GLOSSARY." Although a Glossary of the Words peculiar to each County of England seems as reasonable an object of curiosity as its History, Antiquities, Climate, and various Productions, yet it has been generally omitted by those persons who have un- dertaken to write the Histories of our different Counties. Now each of these counties has words, if not exclusively peculiar to that county, yet certainly so to that part of the kingdom where it is situated, and some of those words are highly beautiful and of their and expressive ; many phrases, adages, proverbs are well worth recording, and have occupied the attention and engaged the pens of men distinguished for talents and learning, among whom the name of Ray will naturally occur to every Englishman at all conversant with his mother- tongue, his work on Proverbs and on the different Dialects of England being one of the most popular ones in our PRELIMINARY OBSERVATIONS.

  • Caulking Mallet
    THE HISTORY OF TIREE IN 100 OBJECTS: no. 83 CAULKING MALLET Over the last few months, Donald Brown, Vaul, has given An Iodhlann a number of boat building tools from his family's workshop. Among them is this substantial wooden caulking mallet, along with a bag of oakum (hemp soaked in tar), three caulking irons, an adze, a wooden block plane and a spokeshave. Taken together, these beautiful tools, smoothed by years of use, shine a flickering light on an often- forgotten Tiree craft. In the nineteenth century, many islanders had a boat but were relatively slow to adopt industrial fishing of the waters around Tiree. The Duke of Argyll had tried hard to encourage matters, letting a croft in Scarinish to a 'boat carpenter' as early as 1802 and crofts in Mannal to prospective fishermen. But the lack of a half-decent harbour meant that all island boats had to be dragged up the beach to safety every evening, limiting their size. Smaller boats took longer to sail out to the fishing grounds, could carry fewer lines and were less safe in the huge seas around Skerryvore. The minister reported in 1845: 'Though almost all are occasional fishers, yet few follow it steadily as a profession. Out of ninety-four fishing skiffs which the parish contains, only ten are regularly employed.' Six years later, however, census officials identified 127 'fishermen' on Tiree, and seven boat building workshops sprang up to service this suddenly booming industry. The classic Tiree skiff, built for the long line white fishery, was an open, double- ended boat between twenty and twenty-six feet long, with a single mast and rigged as a dipping lug.

  • Installing “Chris Burden: Extreme Measures”
    Installing “Chris Burden: Extreme Measures” Joshua Edwards, Director of Exhibitions Management, demystifies the process of installing the most ambitious show in the New Museum’s history. Ghost Ship, 2005. Thirty-foot handmade sixareen sailboat, aluminum mast, computers and software, hydraulics, GPS system, auto rudder, and rigging; 4,000 lbs. Courtesy the artist and Gagosian Gallery Ghost Ship weighs about four thousand pounds and it posed some unconventional engineering challenges. The ship was never meant to be hung in the air in this manner, it was meant to be in water. To support it, we had to work with a team of architects and engineers to design the outrigger structures and the connection points that would secure the ship to the side of the building. Additionally, beyond the engineering, Chris wanted the ship to be rigged as if it was ready to sail. In all of my experience at the Museum, I’ve never had to sail a ship so I knew I was out of my depth. Further complicating the matter, due to the size of the crane we were using, we had to shut down the northbound lanes of the Bowery and do all of our work between midnight and 6 a.m. So we not only had to find a maritime rigger, but also one who could come out at 1 a.m. It’s not every day that you have to rig a ship in the middle of the street in the middle of the night. Twin Quasi Legal Skyscrapers, 2013. In collaboration with TK Architecture, Los Angeles, CA.
