jf8s. NORFOLK. 167 



Had the bricklayer proceeded by ftages, let- 1 1 6, 

 ting the lower parts gee fufBciently firm before SEA-STON$ 

 the upper parts had been laid on, the mortar 

 would have had time to ftiffen, and the wall 

 would have flood. 



If the (lones and air be dry, one halt, when 

 the wall is a few feet above the foundation, is 

 generally found fufRcient. 



*7. 



TUNE 13. This afternoon, ivent to fee the SELLING 

 Smithfield drover pay off his " mafters," at his 

 chamber, at the Angel, at Walfham (Market- 

 day Thurfday). 



The room was full of <f graziers," who had 

 fent up bullocks laft week, and were corus 

 to-day to receive their accounts and money. 



What a truft ! A man, perhaps, not worth a 

 hundred pounds, brings down twelve or fifteen 

 hundred, or, perhaps, two thoufand pounds, 

 to be diftributed among twenty or thirty per r 

 fons, who have no other fecurity than his ho- 

 nefty for their money : nay, even the fervant 

 of this man is entrufted with the fame charge; 

 the matter going one week, the man the other : 

 tut fo it has been for a century pad j and I do 

 np,t learn that one breach has been committed.
