II. the foot; pēs, gen. pĕdis :-- The foot of a man, a measure of length, was divided into twelve equal parts or inches, m. inch; and an inch is three barley-corns in length. In Anglo-Saxon times, the people and their rulers were satisfied with the simplest weights and measures, thus a yard was three feet, of twelve inches each foot, while an inch was in length three barley-corns. In our day, the legislature passed an act so late as July 30, 1855. It is styled An Act for legalising and preserving the restored standards and weights and measures. This Act inculed the weights of George the Fourth, 1824, in which the pounds avoirdupois is fixed by a standard weight, kept in the office of the Exchequer, and one equal seven-thousandth part of such pound avoirdupois shall be a grain. Thus our measures and weights are so recently fixed by standards. v. fót-gemet, eln, ynce, met-geard, geard, gyrd.
