“The following extract will show the actual cash receipts at Bow and
London, 1751 to 1755, exclusive of the book debts received during
the year, which, as will be seen in the preceding account for 1754,
amounted to upwards of £7,000.
“This statement gives us an idea of the steady increase of the
business, which had nearly doubled itself in five years.

“The next entry gives us the weekly account of biscuit china made at
Bow in 1754, and is interesting, as it distinctly informs us that the
name of the Bow factory was _New Canton_; the China works being,
as Thomas Craft says, on the same plan as that of Canton.”
