E-F Post: Exclusive Fiefdom, part 2


A novel premise swept through the medieval towns throughout King Rufred’s kingdom.  Shock rattled through the populations.

Rufred had declared that a model fiefdom was being established in a portion of his kingdom. “An ideal time to see what can be created…” had been the King’s words.
Let it be known to all healthy persons dwelling in the Kingdom that applications may be made to the King to be relocated in a new Fiefdom

Needed are assortments of:  

Tradesmen, herdsmen, farmers, master builders, master weavers, master bakers, master butchers, master farriers, master iron smiths, and any other ‘masters’ as well as any such apprentices desiring to be trained in same.  

Must be married to strong healthy women capable of bearing children.

Females who are talented seamstresses and cooks are welcome, as are females who are willing to do just about anything to survive. 

ONLY HEALTHY YOUNG INDIVIDUALS need apply.


Post Script:  

Also required are trained knights and squires, as well as masons.
  
A wall will be constructed around the community and guarded by said knights.

This will ensure that any un-desirables will be kept out, and the desirables will be kept in.
  
Thank you very much.

Have a nice day.  


It became known as the first Exclusive Fiefdom, the first gated-community in medieval times.
