Henry Jones - The Earl of Essex: 'In hour malignant, to o'erturn the state''

by Henry Jones

Book Overview

Henry Jones was born at Beaulieu, near Drogheda, County Louth, Ireland in 1721.

His working life began when he was apprenticed to a bricklayer. Jones, however, was keen to better himself and studied hard in his private time. He fashioned some complimentary verses, addressed to the corporation of Drogheda and together with some lines 'On Mr. Pope's Death', managed to attract the attention of Lord-chief-justice Singleton, who lived at Beaulieu.
