Advertisements and a vanished mare notice in early 18th century London
A long advertisement fragment lists sermons published by eminent Anglican divines including Tilotson and Sharp, with a sale of books and a note of Miss West and Kennet. It also recounts a stolen mare near Chelmsford, a property to let near Mattingly, and various inks, plasters, and patent powders for sale. It includes notices of a missing spaniel and reward, plus random commercial listings and addresses in London.
