Haylofts were used mainly before the widespread use of Baler hay bale s, which allow simpler handling of bulk hay. Another name for a hayloft is a mow. The hayloft was filled with loose hay from the top of a wagon thrown up through a large door, usually some Convert 3 m sigfig 1 or more above the ground, often in the gable end of the building. Cut in the floor of the hayloft were slots or holes sometimes with hatches , each above a hay rack or manger in the animal housing below.

Many farmers now use larger bales of hay or silage which must be handled by machinery, and these are normally stored in more open buildings or outside.

Van der Weele lived and worked initially in Middelburg, where he was a special inspector of the sea and harbor works in Zeeland. When he was 20 he moved to The Hague and was a student of the Art Academy in The Hague. He received advice from Anton Mauve and Johannes Bosboom . Mauve s influence can be detected in Van der Weele s paintings. His compositions have the same simplicity and his choices of subjects are very much like those of Mauve. He painted flocks of sheep, sheep barns, stable interiors, meadows with cows, sand drifts, foresters with horses, farmers plowing with an ox team, milkmaids tending cows, street scenes with coaches, and sand quarries. Van der Weele occasionally worked in Limburg and Drente, but he usually spent his summers around Nunspeet in the Veluwe. Van der Weele was a close friend of George Hendrik Breitner , who dedicated his Self portrait With Lorgnette to van der Weele.

  1. Henry Howley

    Henry Howley 1775? 1803 , was an Irish insurgent. Howley was a protestant, and worked as a carpenter in his native place, Roscrea , co. Tipperary. He took part in the rebellion of 1798 and in Robert Emmet s insurrection. While engaged in the latter plot he was the ostensible proprietor of the store in Thomas Street, and to him was assigned the task of bringing up the coaches by means of which Emmet designed to effect his entrance into Dublin Castle . While engaged, however, in carrying out this part of the programme, and as he was passing along Bridgefoot Street, Howley stopped to interfere in a common street brawl, which unfortunately ended by his shooting Colonel Lyde Brown . Compelled thereupon to consult his own safety, Howley left the coaches to their fate and fled. To this untoward accident Emmet chiefly ascribed the failure of his plot. Howley s hiding place was subsequently betrayed by a fellow workman, Anthony Finnerty, to Major Sirr . In the scuffle to arrest him Howley shot one of the major s men, and escaped into a hayloft in Pool Street, but was soon captured. He was condemned to death by special commission on 27 September 1803 and confessed to having killed Colonel Brown.
