A broad 1748 report lists candidates and elections for various seats including St Germain's in Cornwall and Montgomery, plus Scots and English peers, with deaths of Viscount Hereford and the Bishop of London.

Court actions report fines and humiliations for Oxford students, robberies near Stamford Hill, a Foxhall marriage in Lincoln's Inn Chapel, and multiple deaths including Wolfe of Barnet and Mrs Leicester of Bond Street. It also covers bankrupcies, weather notes, and a wide trove of local notices.
