	WIRKSWORTH-Parish Records 1608-1899-Lead Miner's Heyday
		Defoe was on his way from Wirksworth to Buxton in the 1720s when he spotted the miner climbing out of a shaft by means of “pieces of wood” in the shaft walls and questioned him about his work.
		Defoe described the miners as “a rude boorish kind of people” but also as a “bold, daring, and even desperate kind of fellows in their search into the bowels of the earth; for no people in the world can outdo them”.
		Defoe then set off over Brassington Moor and came upon a woman and her children living in a cave usually thought to be the cave at Harborough Rocks, which has evidence of prolonged occupation.

		Daniel Defoe's classic account of a city under siege by the Black Plague carries the listener across four centuries and steeps him in the terror of assault by a relentless and implacable foe.
		Daniel Defoe's A Journal of the Plague Year is an interesting volume that blends fact and fiction quite indiscriminately, as the author intended.
		Defoe was less concerned about these issues concerning fiction and non-fiction than modern readers and writers and it is fascinating to see an example of the early beginnings of novel writing.

		That preposition at the end of the sentence no longer has its object standing immediately to the right of it, but the preposition’s object is clearly there, just switched to a position earlier in the sentence.
		This common operation is called preposition stranding, which we can define as ‘the syntactic construction in which a preposition appears without an object.’ Note that word ‘appears’ or ‘appears to be’, because the object has not disappeared.
		And yet it was a dozen years before Defoe wrote that this familiar construction with stranded preposition was first objected to.

		FC Porto: Anderson Surgery Successful FC Porto’s young and multi-talented playmaking number 10 Anderson was successfully operated on at Porto’s Trindade clinic to correct the injury the player suffered in a harsh Katsouranis tackle during Saturday’s 3-2 Clássico win over Benfica.
		The operation will see the player in dry dock for the next three months – a very sensitive absence for the reigning Portuguese champions both at home and in Europe.
		At first it was thought that the player – who was substituted by home-grown talent Raul Meireles – had simply twisted his ankle in the tackle, but x-rays taken after the match showed that there was, indeed, a cracked bone and a need to intervene to avoid malformation.

	The Fortunes & Misfortunes of the Famous Moll Flanders &c. by Daniel Defoe: X
		The same night that I was sent to Newgate, I sent the news of it to my old governess, who was surprised at it, you may be sure, and spent the night almost as ill out of Newgate, as I did in it.
		On the contrary, like the waters in the cavities and hollows of mountains, which petrify and turn into stone whatever they are suffered to drop on, so the continual conversing with such a crew of hell-hounds as I was, had the same common operation upon me as upon other people.
		I degenerated into stone; I turned first stupid and senseless, then brutish and thoughtless, and at last raving mad as any of them were; and, in short, I became as naturally pleased and easy with the place, as if indeed I had been born there.
