Lottery Office Ad Announces Shares of Tickets and Prices
The notice describes selling Tickets and Shares for a drawing under Royal Exchange premises with shares in sixteenths and larger fractions, detailing prices from 1s 6d to 5s 16s, promising division among Adventurers, and claiming security against illegal daily chances. It notes closing the share method before drawing and shifting to whole tickets and daily chances. Also includes reward notices for lost items and several property sales and meeting proposals at Crown Tavern Bloomsbury.
