1843 Farmer's Mag. July 347/1 This description of draining, known to scores of farmers as furrow draining, or shallow draining, is now called thorough draining—a corruption of the word furrow into thorow or thorough, which any one conversant with farming has heard over and over again used by farmers and their servants in the eastern counties.
