Mail robbery near Welwyn prompts 200 pound reward

A post office notice from June 27 1789 reports a mail bag robbery near Welwyn while the Post-Boy was riding from Stevenage to London. A highwayman about five foot six inches, wearing brown coat and dark hair, is sought with a 200 pound reward plus a quantum of royal pardon upon conviction. A second fragment presents campaign letters from Ludlow and Cambridge in 1780, soliciting votes and pledging independence.
