Men and Women draw Carts, their
Office.
THey have no Porters to bear bur∣dens,
but they have big burly∣bon'd
Knaves with their Wives that
do daily draw Carts any whither up and
down the Town, with Merchants
Goods, or any other imployments.
And it is reported that these Cart-drawers
are to see the Rich men of the
Town provided of Milch Nurses for
their Children, which Nurses they call
by the Name of Ams; so that if they
do want a Nurse at any time, these fel∣lows
are cursed, because they have not
gotten Wenches enough with Child to
supply their wants.
