Blurb taken from P.H.Ditchfield (1896) about ploughs being trailed round on
Plough Monday to support plough lights, and plough up the doorsteps of those who
did not contribute. Mentions Lincs., Plough-bullocks, Yorks., Plough-stots and
the City of London's Plough Monday banquet. Re-quotes Ditchfield's quotation
relating to Mrs. Chaworth-Musters' account of the play at Wyverton Hall, Notts.
