A fragmentary OCR snippet references Marie Rowen, a House of Industry location, and a scheduled event or visit. The text is garbled with poor legibility, making precise names, dates, and actions uncertain.
The long record lists officers names and ranks across many regiments in 1787. It details captains, lieutenants, ensigns, and brevet appointments, transferring from various regiments to new company commands, with names such as Charles Mac Murdo, Edward Scott, John Willington, Samuel Daledi, George Dunlop, Gideon Sharpe, John Southwell Browne, Patrick Jacob, John Hodgson, and many more. The document records promotions, retirements, and new commissions within the 2nd through 60th Foot regiments, including specific posts like captain of a company, lieutenant, ensign, and brevet ranks, reflecting a broad reorganization of officers under the War Office.
A damaged OCR fragment shows a court or legal matter involving a company and a beneficiary. The text references a Patrimonial case, a corporation, and a late stage decision regarding a benefaction or duty. Names and precise actions are unclear, but the frame suggests a legal dispute with a financial or beneficiant outcome to a party.
An old advertisement fragment lists items from a dealer with references to ladies apparel and delicate fabrics. It mentions Mary Clements and Mary E Dowland Waugner as embroiderers or staff, with general notes on silk and fancy colors and ceremonial garments. The text is fragmentary but preserves names and roles among officers.
