Ruslan C Pashayev - Rules of Cumberland and Westmorland Wrestling

Dear Friends,
I am happy to share with you a unique historical document which is dated July 15th, 1793. It is the original XVIII century ruleset of Cumberland and Westmorland Wrestling which goes under the name of "The Laws of Wrestling as established in the North of England." This ruleset appeared in the July 1793 issue of "The Sporting Magazine" on Pages 245-246. Enjoy the read.
