On November 24, 1874, Joseph F. Glidden of DeKalb, Illinois, was granted a patent for fencing material consisting of barbs wrapped around a single strand of wire and held in place by twisting that strand around another. His original double-strand design, the Winner, lived up to its name; it is the most commercially successful of the hundreds of eventual barbed wire designs. Glidden was also the winner in a welter of litigation that reached all the way to the Supreme Court after some dozen other inventors claimed legal priority. Barbed wire was not immediately successful in Texas and elsewhere, especially with smaller cattle ranchers who depended on an 'open range' to sustain their operations. Their opposition led to the barbed wire conflicts of the 1880's, but eventually the ranges were fenced off. Although open range became a thing of the past, barbed wire helped cattlemen to breed herds in protected environments, thus negating the reliance on long-horned cattle that were more suitable to the open range.

-Draper's Garden was the park adjacent to Draper's Hall, London (at Throgmorton Ave. and Copthall Avenue), the seat of the cloth merchants in London, a guild chartered in 1364. The “garden” was behind their hall and it was a fashionable promenade area. The Drapers guild was one of the most historically powerful trade companies in the city, although in modern times it has only ceremonial and charitable duties. The Gardens have disappeared as well, having been developed for an office block. Daniel Defoe mentions Draper's Gardens, London, in his '''Journal of the Plague Year''', where he talks of the panic the plague produced in the population:

-"Draper's Gardens" appears to be the name of the dance associated with a later tune called "[[Margravine's Waltz (The)]]" (there were no waltzes in Playford's day, although there were 3/4 time tunes). See [[Annotation:Margravine's Waltz (The)]] for more specifics. A ''Margravine'' is the wife or widow of a ''Margrave'', a title associated with the lord or military governor of a German border province, especially in Medieval times. The title had some longevity as a hereditary title for some princes in the Holy Roman Empire. Barnes dates the tune to 1721. The dance and an another, unrelated, tune (for which see "[[Draper's Gardens (2)]]") appears under the title "Draper's Garden" in the 13th edition of Playford's '''English Dancing Master''' (1706), and subsequently in London publisher John Walsh's '''Compleat Dancing Master''', vol. 1 (1718), reprinted by Walsh in his third edition (1731).
