John Hetherington

John Hetherington was an English haberdasher, often incorrectly credited as the inventor of the top hat, which supposedly caused a riot when he first wore it in public on 15 January 1797.
==The story==
The common form of the story, as reproduced in many books, has it that he was arraigned before the Lord Mayor on 15 January 1797 on a charge of breach of the peace and inciting a riot, and was required to post a £500 bond. Reportedly he had "appeared on the public highway wearing upon his head what he called a silk hat (which was shiny lustre and calculated to frighten timid people)" and the officers of the Crown stated that "several women fainted at the unusual sight, while children screamed, dogs yelped and a younger son of Cordwainer Thomas was thrown down by the crowd which collected and had his right arm broken".〔''Hatters' Gazette'', 16 January 1797 (referenced in ''Australian Law Review'', 1927)〕
