In 1768, Arkwright, having completed the model of a machine for spinning cotton thread, removed to Preston.

At this time he had hardly a penny in the world, and was almost in rags.

On the occasion of a contested election, the party with whom he voted had to supply him with a decent suit of clothes before he could present himself at the polling-booth!

在競(jìng)爭(zhēng)激烈的選舉中,他所投票的政黨給他買了一套得體的衣服,他才得以前往投票站!

but, afraid of the hostility of the spinners, he thought it best to leave Lancashire, and go to Nottingham.

但是,為了躲避紡織廠,他認(rèn)為自己最好還是離開(kāi)蘭開(kāi)夏郡,前往諾丁漢。

 

Poor and friendless, it may easily be supposed that Arkwright found it a hard matter to get any one to back him in a speculation which people then regarded as hopeless.

He at length succeeded in convincing Messrs. Need and Strutt, stocking-weavers in the place,

of the value of his invention, and induced them to enter into partnership with him.

In 1769 he took out a patent for the spinning-frame as its inventor,

1769年,他為自己的發(fā)明的精紡機(jī)申請(qǐng)了專利,

and a mill, worked by horse-power, was erected for spinning cotton by the new machine.
