Rough inventory of books and odd notices from London printings
An old catalog of books and plays republished by A. Berresworth and E. Curll, listing titles such as Captain Symson’s voyage, Nelson’s works, Fontenelle’s Plurality of Worlds, a tragedy The Cruel Gift, and poems. The fragment also advertises night truffles for rupture, horse-keeping notices near Maulden, a gold watch chain reward, medicine advertisements, and calls for workers to Barbados for a Gospel Society college. It includes stolen horse notices, soldier detachments, and reward offers for missing persons in Bedford, Newport Pagnell, and Leicester Fields.
