Ransacked Newcastle Brandy Sale Amidst Missing Mare Notices
An 18th century advertisement fragment details a large sale at Rings Warehouse Newcastle upon Tyne offering Old Brandy in half anchors and smaller quantities at set prices, plus condemned wines and Callicnes in Exchequer. It also reports several horse thefts and recoveries with rewards, notices for missing mares from Poole and Harvey, and a warning about a Dutch youth and a Mrs Balje alias Clayton seeking missing items and funds.
