Highs (1718-1803) originally produced a spinning-jenny that pre-dated, and was probably the prototype for, James Hargreaves's effort.
Wright put him in touch with businessmen Jedediah Strutt and Samuel Need, and together they built the water-powered Cromford Mill in Derbyshire, with Strutt and Need taking Arkwright's entire initial output of thread for their stocking-knitting business.
