A fragmented historical lament on painting and poetry blending with satirical critique. It references Beau Nash, Isaac Newton, and Adr. Pop., with passably readable lines about art and truth. The text mentions the Borough of Soodacurk and local disputes, hinting at civic contention and muddled leadership.
Balt ta M Qu rk speaks in native guttural about Ireland and the nation. The piece mocks bluster and urges Irish support for the state, claiming the infants of Ireland are strong politicians and warning against party wrangling.
A Middlesex Journal correspondent cites Colonel Sidney and classical examples to argue for lawful and extrajudicial remedies against tyrannical rulers. The writer presses that when magistrates betray public trust, oppressed people may seek redress, even by force, to defend liberty.
It is a terse observation confirmed by daily fatal experience that there exists no group so infamous or dangerous that they cannot find others to aid and abet them. Motivated by interest party or ambition, they attract accomplices to further their aims.
A Coventry letter denounces recent addresses seen as smuggling or duplicity by loyalists. The writer condemns their support for despotism, praises the Bill of Rights, and labels the Coventry communication a treacherous imposition. The piece frames opposition to reform as rooted in fear of constitutional protections.
Readable fragments describe billed fabrics and textiles including blankets and linens. The text references patterns, colors, flowered coups, and feathered fabrics offered by a dealer with instructions to order by the yard. It hints at ready money terms and a cautious, persuasive sales tone.
A fragmented 19th century notice lists freehold and leasehold houses for sale or lease across areas near Covent Garden, Shoreditch, Pancras, and Wapping. It details ground rents, lease terms, and counts of properties including eight leasehold houses and several freeholds, with a notice to contact Tooke’s Court for formal inquiries.
A garbled OCR fragment references Great Britain and her Colonies, Engleman printers in London, with names Payne and Almon and locations like Pater-noster-Row and Piccadilly. The readable bits hint at a published matter from that era, but most details are illegible.
