The Debtor Case and Peerage Notes in Parliament
A late 18th century record describes a debt dispute over a bill of exchange and a question of bankruptcy credit. It lists numerous peers by name and notes religious exclusions from sitting in the House. It also covers royal birthday illuminations, the capture of Oczakow and related geographical details, a pilgrim journey to Jerusalem, a Chester fire with a fatal casualty, a frozen ice arbor near Cold Bath Fields, and a forgery case involving a draftsman named Richter.
