Unit Definition (as, ass [Northern Europe])
The as, ass [Northern Europe] is a traditional unit of mass for gold and silver, used in most of northern Europe but not in England. The unit varied in size from about 48 to 58 milligrams (0.75 to 0.90 English grain).

Unit Definition (fother [lead])
The fother is a traditional English unit of weight for lead. The fother, equal to 30 fotmals, was always a little smaller than a (long) ton. The original version seems to have been equivalent to 2160 avoirdupois pounds, and the version still being used in the nineteenth century was equal to 19.5 hundredweight or 2184 pounds.
