Lost Cornwall: The O&W and Firth Carpet
“Show me a Scotchman who doesn’t love the thistle.
Show me an Englishman who doesn’t love the Rose.
Show me a true hearted son of old Erin who doesn’t
love the land where the Shamrock grows.
Show me a Weaver who doesn’t love his shuttle.
Show me a working man who doesn’t love his tools.
Show me the true-hearted son of endeavor who
doesn’t love the spot where the Firth name rules.”
F. J. Collier, 1903
