have　been　set　up　and　monasteries　built；　and　in　honour　of　whom　the
  famous　monastery　of　St。　Edmundsbury；　above　mentioned；　was　founded；
  which　most　people　erroneously　think　was　the　place　where　the　said
  murder　was　committed。
  Besides　the　towns　mentioned　above；　there　are　Halesworth；
  Saxmundham；　Debenham；　Aye；　or　Eye；　all　standing　in　this　eastern
  side　of　Suffolk；　in　which；　as　I　have　said；　the　whole　country　is
  employed　in　dairies　or　in　feeding　of　cattle。
  This　part　of　England　is　also　remarkable　for　being　the　first　where
  the　feeding　and　fattening　of　cattle；　both　sheep　as　well　as　black
  cattle；　with　turnips；　was　first　practised　in　England；　which　is　made
  a　very　great　part　of　the　improvement　of　their　lands　to　this　day；
  and　from　whence　the　practice　is　spread　over　most　of　the　east　and
  south　parts　of　England　to　the　great　enriching　of　the　farmers　and
  increase　of　fat　cattle。　　And　though　some　have　objected　against　the
  goodness　of　the　flesh　thus　fed　with　turnips；　and　have　fancied　it
  would　taste　of　the　root；　yet　upon　experience　it　is　found　that　at
  market　there　is　no　difference；　nor　can　they　that　buy　single　out　one
  joint　of　mutton　from　another　by　the　taste。　　So　that　the　complaint
  which　our　nice　palates　at　first　made　begins　to　cease　of　itself；　and
  a　very　great　quantity　of　beef　and　mutton　also　is　brought　every　year
  and　every　week　to　London　from　this　side　of　England；　and　much　more
  than　was　formerly　known　to　be　fed　there。
  I　cannot　omit；　however　little　it　may　seem；　that　this　county　of
  Suffolk　is　particularly　famous　for　furnishing　the　City　of　London
  and　all　the　counties　round　with　turkeys；　and　that　it　is　thought
  there　are　more　turkeys　bred　in　this　county　and　the　part　of　Norfolk
  that　adjoins　to　it　than　in　all　the　rest　of　England；　especially　for
  sale；　though　this　may　be　reckoned；　as　I　say　above；　but　a　trifling
  thing　to　take　notice　of　in　these　remarks；　yet；　as　I　have　hinted；
  that　I　shall　observe　how　London　is　in　general　supplied　with　all　its
  provisions　from　the　whole　body　of　the　nation；　and　how　every　part　of
  the　island　is　engaged　in　some　degree　or　other　of　that　supply。　　On
  this　account　I　could　not　omit　it；　nor　will　it　be　found　so
  inconsiderable　an　article　as　some　may　imagine；　if　this　be　true；
  which　I　received　an　account　of　from　a　person　living　on　the　place；
  viz。；　that　they　have　counted　three　hundred　droves　of　turkeys　（for
  they　drive　them　all　in　droves　on　foot）　pass　in　one　season　over
  Stratford　Bridge　on　the　River　Stour；　which　parts　Suffolk　from
  Essex；　about　six　miles　from　Colchester；　on　the　road　from　Ipswich　to
  London。　　These　droves；　as　they　say；　generally　contain　from　three
  hundred　to　a　thousand　each　drove；　so　that　one　may　suppose　them　to
  contain　five　hundred　one　with　another；　which　is　one　hundred　and
  fifty　thousand　in　all；　and　yet　this　is　one　of　the　least　passages；
  the　numbers　which　travel　by　Newmarket　Heath　and　the　open　country
  and　the　forest；　and　also　the　numbers　that　come　by　Sudbury　and　Clare
  being　many　more。
  For　the　further　supplies　of　the　markets　of　London　with　poultry；　of
  which　these　countries　particularly　abound；　they　have　within　these
  few　years　found　it　practicable　to　make　the　geese　travel　on　foot
  too；　as　well　as　the　turkeys；　and　a　prodigious　number　are　brought　up
  to　London　in　droves　from　the　farthest　parts　of　Norfolk；　even　from
  the　fen　country　about　Lynn；　Downham；　Wisbech；　and　the　Washes；　as
  also　from　all　the　east　side　of　Norfolk　and　Suffolk；　of　whom　it　is
  very　frequent　now　to　meet　droves　with　a　thousand；　sometimes　two
  thousand　in　a　drove。　　They　begin　to　drive　them　generally　in　August；
  by　which　time　the　harvest　is　almost　over；　and　the　geese　may　feed　in
  the　stubbles　as　they　go。　　Thus　they　hold　on　to　the　end　of　October；
  when　the　roads　begin　to　be　too　stiff　and　deep　for　their　broad　feet
  and　short　legs　to　march　in。
  Besides　these　methods　of　driving　these　creatures　on　foot；　they　have
  of　late　also　invented　a　new　method　of　carriage；　being　carts　formed
  on　purpose；　with　four　stories　or　stages　to　put　the　creatures　in　one
  above　another；　by　which　invention　one　cart　will　carry　a　very　great
  number；　and　for　the　smoother　going　they　drive　with　two　horses
  abreast；　like　a　coach；　so　quartering　the　road　for　the　ease　of　the
  gentry　that　thus　ride。　　Changing　horses；　they　travel　night　and　day；
  so　that　they　bring　the　fowls　seventy；　eighty；　or；　one　hundred　miles
  in　two　days　and　one　night。　　The　horses　in　this　new…fashioned
  voiture　go　two　abreast；　as　above；　but　no　perch　below；　as　in　a
  coach；　but　they　are　fastened　together　by　a　piece　of　wood　lying
  crosswise　upon　their　necks；　by　which　they　are　kept　even　and
  together；　and　the　driver　sits　on　the　top　of　the　cart　like　as　in　the
  public　carriages　for　the　army；　etc。
  In　this　manner　they　hurry　away　the　creatures　alive；　and　infinite
  numbers　are　thus　carried　to　London　every　year。　　This　method　is　also
  particular　for　the　carrying　young　turkeys　or　turkey　poults　in　their
  season；　which　are　valuable；　and　yield　a　good　price　at　market；　as
  also　for　live　chickens　in　the　dear　seasons；　of　all　which　a　very
  great　number　are　brought　in　this　manner　to　London；　and　more
  prodigiously　out　of　this　country　than　any　other　part　of　England；
  which　is　the　reason　of　my　speaking　of　it　here。
  In　this　part；　which　we　call　High　Suffolk；　there　are　not　so　many
  families　of　gentry　or　nobility　placed　as　in　the　other　side　of　the
  country。　　But　it　is　observed　that　though　their　seats　are　not　so
  frequent　here；　their　estates　are；　and　the　pleasure　of　West　Suffolk
  is　much　of　it　supported　by　the　wealth　of　High　Suffolk；　for　the
  richness　of　the　lands　and　application　of　the　people　to　all　kinds　of
  improvement　is　scarce　credible；　also　the　farmers　are　so　very
  considerable　and　their　farms　and　dairies　so　large　that　it　is　very
  frequent　for　a　farmer　to　have　1；000　pounds　stock　upon　his　farm　in
  cows　only。
  NORFOLK。
  From　High　Suffolk　I　passed　the　Waveney　into　Norfolk；　near　Schole
  Inn。　　In　my　passage　I　saw　at　Redgrave　（the　seat　of　the　family）　a
  most　exquisite　monument　of　Sir　John　Holt；　Knight；　late　Lord　Chief
  Justice　of　the　King's　Bench　several　years；　and　one　of　the　most
  eminent　lawyers　of　his　time。　　One　of　the　heirs　of　the　family　is　now
  building　a　fine　seat　about　a　mile　on　the　south　side　of　Ipswich；
  near　the　road。
  The　epitaph　or　inscription　on　this　monument　is　as　follows：…

  When　we　come　into　Norfolk；　we　see　a　face　of　diligence　spread　over
  the　whole　country；　the　vast　manufactures　carried　on　（in　chief）　by
  the　Norwich　weavers　employs　all　the　country　round　in　spinning　yarn
  for　them；　besides　many　thousand　packs　of　yarn　which　they　receive
  from　other　countries；　even　from　as　far　as　Yorkshire　and
  Westmoreland；　of　which　I　shall　speak　in　its　place。
  This　side　of　Norfolk　is　very　populous；　and　thronged　with　great　and
  spacious　market…towns；　more　and　larger　than　any　other　part　of
  England　so　far　from　London；　except　Devonshire；　and　the　West　Riding
  of　Yorkshire；　for　example；　between　the　frontiers　of　Suffolk　and　the
  city　of　Norwich　on　this　side；　which　is　not　above　22　miles　in
  breadth；　are　the　following　market…towns；　viz。：…
  Thetford；　Hingham；　Harleston；
  Diss；　West　Dereham；　E。　Dereham；
  Harling；　Attleborough；　Watton；
  Bucknam；　Windham；　Loddon；　etc。
  Most　of　these　towns　are　very　populous　and　large；　but　that　which　is
  most　remarkable　is；　that　the　whole　country　round　them　is　so
  interspersed　with　villages；　and　those　villages　so　large；　and　so
  full　of　people；　that　they　are　equal　to　market…towns　in　other
  countries；　in　a　word；　they　render　this　eastern　part　of　Norfolk
  exceeding　full　of　inhabitants。
  An　eminent　weaver　of　Norwich　gave　me　a　scheme　of　their　trade　on
  this　occasion；　by　which；　calculating　from　the　number　of　looms　at
  that　time　employed　in　the　city　of　Norwich　only；　besides　those
  employed　in　other　towns　in　the　same　county；　he　made　it　appear　very
  plain；　that　there　were　120；000　people　employed　in　the　woollen　and
  silk　and　wool　manufactures　of　that　city　only；　not　that　the　people
  all　lived　in　the　city；　though　Norwich　is　a　very　large　and　populous
  city　too：　but；　I　say；　they　were　employed　for　spinning　the　yarn　used
  for　such　goods　as　were　all　made　in　that　city。　　This　account　is
  curious　enough；　and　very　exact；　but　it　is　too　long　for　the　compass
  of　this　work。
  This　shows　the　wonderful　extent　of　the　Norwich　manufacture；　or
  stuff…weaving　trade；　by　which　so　many　thousands　of　families　are
  maintained。　　Their　trade；　indeed；　felt　a　very　sensible　decay；　and
  the　cries　of　the　poor　began　to　be　very　loud；　when　the　wearing　of
