Excerpt from Printer's Errors He was the son Of a self-made man. His father had been the founder and owner of nine-tenths of the shares of the well-known Dublin printing firm, F. F. Wolver hampton, Ltd. A hard man was old F. F., a hard husband, a hard master, and a despotic father, at whose memory young F. F. Still trembled. Having led a struggling life himself in his early years he Saw no reason why his son should not do the same; having had no kind of liberal education himself he grudged it to his son - nay more, be regarded such a thing as an encumbrance to a business man, which was what he intended his son to be. So at fourteen years Of age young F. F., heir to the whole establishment, was put to serve his time as an apprentice just as if he were a poor man's child, and for two years toiled and sweated at the works. N-o-w young F. F. Was made of different stuff from his father: a gentle, cheery lad, impatient and imaginative. He did not care much for hard work of any kind, but the laborious grimy work of the printers apprentice he detested with all his heart; SO he dreamed and plotted and planned a thousand ways of escaping from it. He had little time for reading, nor, in fact, did he feel much desire for it, but he had now and then come across Stray books that pleased him: mainly boys' adven ture books in which the hero invariably ran away from home, made his fortune, and finally settled down to peace and prosperity. He was not long, therefore, in making up his mind to do likewise. Now for all his harshness F. F. Senior was generous with money. Perhaps he dimly perceived the heaviness of his son's lot and wished to mitigate it somewhat; at any rate, besides paying him his wages the same as all the other hands, he supplied him liberally with pocket money. Not that it was much use to the poor boy at the time, for he got little Opportunity to Spend it, and even then his tastes were not extravagant; but it proved a god-send eventually. The money used to accumulate in his pockets, and when these were too full he used to deposit the overflow in. A drawer in his dressing table.

A BRIEF HISTORY of PRINTING IN ENGLAND England was slow to take up printing and slow and backward in the development of it. It was 25 years after the invention of printing before any printing was done in England. It was many years after that before the work of the English printers could compare with that done on the continent. The reason for this is to be found in the conditions of the country itself. Although the two great universities had long been in existence, Oxford dating back to 1167 and Cambridge to 1209, England as a whole was a backward country. In culture and the refinements of civilization, as well as in many more practical things, England was not so far advanced as the rest of Europe nor was it to be so for many years to come. England at this time was an agricultural and grazing country. A colony of Flemings had been brought over to start the cloth industry. There was still, nevertheless, a large export of wool to Flanders, which was there woven and sent back as cloth. The English nobles lived largely on their estates, looking after their tenants, hunting for diversion, and doing a little fighting occasionally when life became otherwise unbearably uninteresting. They were not an educated class and the peasantry were profoundly ignorant. The cities which, as always, depended upon manufacture and commerce were just beginning to grow, with the exception of some of the seaport towns which were already prosperous and wealthy. Not only was this general condition true, but there were special conditions which rendered the middle of the fifteenth century unfavorable to culture and to the introduction of a new invention auxiliary to culture. In 1450 England was shaken and horrified by the bloody insurrection of peasants, with its attendant outrages, known as Jack Cade’s Revolt. Scarcely had order been restored when a disputed succession to the crown plunged the country into the bloody civil war between the adherents of the Houses of York and Lancaster, known as the Wars of the Roses. This period of civil strife lasted for thirty years and affected the general welfare of England very seriously. It was especially marked by mortality among the noblest families in the realm, many of which were actually exterminated. Some time within this bloody half-century the art of printing was introduced into England. There is in existence a book printed in Oxford and dated on the title page 1468. Upon the existence of this book, and upon a somewhat doubtful legend, has been built a claim that English printing originated in Oxford. This claim, however, has practically ceased to be maintained. The legend appears to be baseless, and it has been generally concluded that the date is a misprint and that it should be 1478, an X having been dropped in writing the Roman date, a not uncommon error in publications of this period. Historians have now generally agreed that the introduction of printing in England is due to William Caxton, one of the most interesting figures in the whole annals of printing.
