Flying Post Or Post Master in London, Middlesex

Remarkable 17th Century Trade and Obscure Notices Collected

A dense folio of notices reports the Rosia Company admission of merchants led by the Earl of Stafedale, a Chelsea creditor repulsed, a suicide, private interment of Sir Fish Child, French frontiers soldiers pay shortages, papal appeals for exiles relief, and a big booksale with catalog details. It notes a betrothal and stock quotes, a charity annuity plan, and a sale of Serjeant Farrington’s library with a catalogue for sale at the Swan-Tavern and at Grigsby’s office. The document also advertises religious works, sermons, and political letters newly published, with prices and sale locations in London and Dublin.
