The idea
The anchor gives no eighteenth-century population figures. The witness does: England and Wales grew from five and a half million in seventeen hundred to over nine million by eighteen-oh-one, on new crops, rotations and enclosed farms.
In practice
More mouths, more hands, more cities: unit 09's demand.
Where people slip
This entry rests on the witness texts, not the anchor.
