81 CHAPTER VII.
ASTBITEY, TWYFOED, DR. THOMAS WEDGWOOD, AND OTHER CONTEMPORARIES OF ELERS.
It was briefly noted in tlie previous cliapter how two potters of Shelton, named Astbury and Twyford, so successfully feigned stupidity or idiocy as to be employed by Elers long enough to master his processes. No doubt at the time they considered they were very clever fellows to impose so success- fully upon a foreigner, and perha]3s the only palliation of their conduct that can ...be urged is that, having acquired the information, they proceeded to develop and improve their knowledge by ingenious work on their own account, and this knowledge they appear to have communicated to their neighbours. Both Astbury and Twyford commenced work- ing for themselves in Shelton, but independently of each other, for their works are said to have been situated on opposite sides of the mound where Shelton Church now stands. We have little information of Twyford or his pro- ductions.* Shaw states that Twyford made red ware (evi- dently hke that made by Elers), and white stonewares, using lead-ore glaze for some vessels and salt for those of more value.
