		The workshops of the industrial belt of Leeds had always emitted smoke, but they did not use coal on the scale of a steam-engine, and they were located east and south of the town, so that the prevailing winds coming from the south-west took the smoke away from Briggate and the properties west of it.

		The weight of the two crates caused a revolutionary mob at Le Havre to suspect that plate or other valuables belonging to some aristocrat were being smuggled out of France under Jefferson's diplomatic passport.
		He almost failed to get an audience but at last was granted a single interview as a result of the impor- tunations of Patrick Colquhoun, Henry Dundas, and, most important of all, William Pulteney.
