Chronological Diary Items From April Historic Notices
The April entries record deaths of several notable figures, arrivals and marriages, and a proclamation restricting lending to foreign princes without the king's license. Notables include Dy’d Fohn Lane and Dy’d Thomas Penny, Lady Soames and Lady Monson births, and the Dutchess of Bridgewater's son. The document also notes Samuel Tyson’s marriage and Robert Thornhill’s death, plus a London port incident involving a land-waiter.
