Annuities and Linen Trade Advertisements in London Notice
A fragmentary early 18th century notice discusses annuity purchases by individuals, with terms for payments during the life of the purchaser or seller or joint lives, inviting signaled intentions via letter to a contact at George's Cottse-Houls near Temple-Bar. It also promotes William Dalrymple's Edinburgh warehouse offering Scottish linens for sale by the piece at Charing-Cross, aiming to compare favorably with foreign fabrics. The text mixes health commentary, a dumb servant device, and various promotional asides, including medical references to Dr. Shaw and exercise regimes.
