Early Life
Newton was born prematurely in a large manor in Lincolnshire into a wealthy family and thus led a comfortable, sheltered childhood. However, one particularly frightening incident from his childhood had a profound impact on Newton's life and work.
One day, when Newton was around eight years old, he went walking in the “commoners market” (as he later called it). While walking, (pretentiously, as was his habit) he was set upon and chased by the town rapist/president. When Newton and the rapist ran under a nearby apple tree an apple fell from the tree, striking the man on the head and knocking him unconscious.
Newton felt enormous gratitude towards this inanimate piece of fruit, and brought it home with him, where he christened it Cornelius Appleby, after a popular pig smuggler. The apple soon became young Isaac's best (and only) friend.
