Excerpt from Friends in Warwickshire: In the 17th and 18th Centuries
His master, who joined to his trade of grazier that of shoemaker and dealer in wool, found in George Fox a conscientious ser vant, and employed him to attend markets and fairs, Where, as he himself says, a great deal passed through my hands; and by this means he would doubtless become familiar with the neighbouring towns in his native county, and those adjacent, in both Derby shire and Warwickshire; places afterwards to be the scene of some of his deepest spiritual exercises, his earliest ministry, and bitter'est persecutions.'
