To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In 1842 he had the satis- faction of seeing his eldest son, William, come of age, and into partnership ; thenceforward there was still more energy in the ever-increasing business. William Foster had been specially trained in the craft of worsted manu- facture ; he was also gifted with all the qualities so remark- able in his father ; the combination of father and son led to wonderful results. Just as the partnership was formed, the firm was faced with another of the riots which had marked indus...trial life in Yorkshire for nearly forty years ; the Fosters feared nothing from their own people, but a good deal from a riotous section in the neighbouring town of Halifax ; they took a leaf out of Cartwright's book, and imitated his example during the Luddite riots by organizing their workmen and arming them, with the result that when a Halifax party of disaffected made a demonstration against Queensbury, it saw the warm welcome prepared for it, and retired in discomfiture. The Fosters soon had other things than riots to think of.
