  • 4 bucka-waggon

    сущ.; Calla диал.
    см. тж bucka
    гужевой фургон, большая ( крытая) повозка

    In the faint, unearthly light that comes before dawn, a dozen bucka waggons—they are the kind driven by the Manni, with rounded canvas tops—roll along the road. The canvas is bright clean white, to reflect the sun and keep the interiors cool on hot summer days, and they look like strange, low-floating clouds. The cumulus kind, may it do ya. Each waggon is drawn by a team of six mules or four horses. On the seat of each, driving, are either a pair of fighters or of designated child-minders. — В слабом, неземном предрассветном свете дюжина фургонов, с парусиновым верхом, в таких обычно ездят Мэнни, катится по дороге. Парусина ярко-белая, чтобы отражать солнечные лучи и сохранять в фургоне относительную прохладу даже в жаркие летние дни. А сейчас фургоны напоминают странные, низко летящие облака. Каждый запряжен четырьмя или шестью мулами или лошадьми. На козлах – по два человека, из тех, кому предстоит сразиться с Волками, или из сопровождающих детей. (ТБ 5)

  • 6 Kennedy, John

    SUBJECT AREA: Textiles
    [br]
    b. 4 July 1769 Knocknalling, Kirkcudbrightshire, Scotland
    d. 30 October 1855 Ardwick Hall, Manchester, England
    [br]
    Scottish cotton spinner and textile machine maker.
    [br]
    Kennedy was the third son of his father, Robert, and went to the village school in Dalry. On his father's death, he was sent at the age of 14 to Chowbent, Lancashire, where he was apprenticed to William Cannan, a maker of textile machines such as carding frames, Hargreaves's jennies and Arkwright's waterframes. On completion of his apprenticeship in 1791, he moved to Manchester and entered into partnership with Benjamin and William Sandford and James M'Connel, textile machine makers and mule spinners. In 1795 this partnership was terminated and one was made with James M'Connel to form the firm M'Connel \& Kennedy, cotton spinners.
    Kennedy introduced improvements for spinning fine yarns and the firm of M'Connel \& Kennedy became famous for the quality of these products, which were in great demand. He made the spindles turn faster during the second part of the mule carriage's outward draw, and from 1793 onwards he experimented with driving mules by steam engines. Like William Kelly at New Lanark, he succeeded in making the spinning sequences power-operated by 1800, although the spinner had to take over the winding on. This made the mule into a factory machine, but it still required skilled operators. He was also involved with Henry Houldsworth, Junior, in the improvement of the roving frame. In 1803 Kennedy joined the Manchester Literary \& Philosophical Society, to which he presented several papers, including one in 1830 on "A memoir of Samuel Crompton". He retired from the spinning business in 1826, but continued his technical and mechanical pursuits. He was consulted about whether the Liverpool \& Manchester Railway should have moving or stationary steam engines and was an umpire at the Rainhill Trials in 1829.
