Stage Coaches and Medicinal Advertisements Listed
An 1717 London notice page describes St James's Park dogs found and reward, various stage coach itineraries from the Ram Inn to Bath and Bristol, and numerous medical cures and tonics sold by merchants such as Mr Osborn, Mr Pepy, and Mr Lockton. It also promotes eye water cures and a legendary gout remedy with broad panics about vapours and melancholy. Several booksellers advertise political monthlies and secret histories from Fleet Street and Paternoster Row.
