Best Answer

He had a hard childhood because he was very poor. His father died when he was three and his mother had to support him and his brother by spinning and weaving at home. He was apprenticed out to a tailor when he was fourteen and so had no chance to go to school . The man he was apprenticed to worked him so hard that he ran away and supported himself as best he could.
